Qatar F/O recruitment in October 2012

[airline man]

Hi,

I was hoping that people could give me some real-time inputs about the scenario in Qatar.

Have read a lot about the organisation being in a mess and that crew scheduling isn't very pleasant. Management may be hostile as well.

Have also heard that the housing allowance isn't really adequate to live well. (in comparison with Emirates)

Does anyone know how much money one can save at the end of the month considering that my lifestyle is simple and I have a wife and child with me.

I have about 2000 F/O hours on the 777, what are my career progression prospects in Qatar.

If I were to move to Doha it would be with my wife and baby boy. Is there a free and cosmopolitan society where they would be comfortable.

All the above comments are questions. NOT accusations! I'm simply looking for a clear honest picture.

Thanks all
