Just a word of warning
While I would never tell someone not to come out to Saudi I do have a word of warning for those who do choose to come out here.
The Saudi's are people who you expect to receive grief from the odd time to time. However, the most dissappointing aspect of being here are the people who develop a sanctimonious attitude towards their fellow employees. Very happy to point out your faults and minor foul-ups but the first to dismiss/ignore their own faults/mistakes as irrelevent or someone else's fault.
