A330 is a better machine from a technical stand point and also more choices for future endeavors, unless you plan to stay in Qatar forever.
the B777 maybe enjoyable to fly, but the fact remains it's a antiquated machine with very limited level of technology in comparison to the enhanced A330's that QA operates.

They both have benefits and draw backs. in the end it's just a pay check no matter what you operate.
The B777 has a light schedule compared to the rest of the fleets, but it's still a new addition. It will NOT stay that way. Unless you have your life and family in Doha, what is the use of only working 4 to 5 flights per month if you only have a maximum of 3 days OFF in a row and can't really leave.

If your life is established in Doha, then it's not so bad really.
