I have just tried working it out.
It is remarkably similar in cash in pocket terms. For example, if you fly the average 20 days and take the cash housing allowance, it appears that you end up with about the same as if you were in Emirates working about the same number of days and getting a bit of overtime. Personally, I prefer knowing what I am going to earn, so do not like the idea of daily pay at all. What if you're sick? Annual leave?
Emirates has the advantage in staff travel, utilities are paid for (at the moment!) medical for you and family, loss of licence (3yrs salary) and a provident fund.
Starting salary for FO is about Dhs17000, Captain's first year should be around Dhs25,000.
Housing allowance for FO is Dhs95,000, for Captain, Dhs105,000.
Staff travel, FO gets an annual family leave ticket home within the first three years, anywhere thereafter. This is econonmy upgradeabloe business space available.
Captains get business, upgradeable first space available.
Unlimited ID90s can be purchased and there is an annual ID90 given free, rising to two a year after ten years.
If you can stomach it until you are 60 and you have served at least 15 years, you get subsidised private health care.
Emirates gives 42 days annual leave and a computerised rostering / bidding system that should allow you to bid for days off either side of leave to get more time away.
It ain't the job it used to be, but where is?

You get 42 days leave a year as well at Etihad.
No sick days.
They did promise loss of license insurance but decided against it.
And the annual leave tickets are upgradable as well. Capt/First, F/O Business.
Baggage allowance on repatriation was up to 950 kilos, now only Max. 500.
Also the training bonds are for 5 years. If you get upgraded or CCQ'D and then go on the 380 you will be looking at about 880,000 DHS.

Well, sounds like there are some similarities. One thing I forgot to ask was about the sick days, does Emirates get any? Or do you earn XXX number of hours or allowed XXX number of days to use per year? Also please clarify the 42 days of leave for both - is that the max you will get or can you earn additional as the years go by?
Thank you again for the answers. This is much easier than piecing it together over many forums that have vague references.
