Not saying its all bad. It depends on what you're expecting.
In money terms, I think most will agree an FO with a family will not have much money ( if any) left at the end of the month.
As mentioned above, the crux of the problem is that rents (and other costs ) here have rocketed in the last 12 months, but the pay has not. There is no incremental pay scale here, no yearly pay rise, so who knows where we'll be in 3 years.
In true Dubai style Rents are projected to rise even further, so its difficult to know what you're committing to.
I hear that the company has been ''looking'' at the housing allowance issue for a few months, but no one is really expecting any imminent change. (maybe if we cancel flights due lack of crew!)
Consider delaying your start date.... theres probably a property crash due in about 18 months
