Qatar A320 Questions

I have been offered an F/O job with Qatar on the A320 fleet. I have some questions that I have not found answers to elsewhere on pprune (or the information is very old), or via contacting Qatar directly (they were not very forthcoming with information).

1) What are the monthly duty/flight hours likely to be? I have read conflicting information about this on pprune.

2) Are there many stop-overs, and if so, what percentage of flights?

3) If they put me in company accommodation, what sort of property will it be, and will it be on a sharing basis?

4) People are saying on pprune that the prospects for transferring fleets onto longhaul are bad. What sort of time frame would this be?

5) Where will I be doing the type-rating? I know they have used GECAT in England in the past, but also understand they have simulators in Doha.
