I respect to all ideas. But I think 100% like you. After 1 month saying "unforeseen changes etc" made me think twice. I have a family and don't wanna have surprise after join them.

No worries you’ll all get a job here as hundreds are leaving( reasons you’ll see by yourself). Salary is back to pre covid from February. Be prepared to work 120hrs + and log 2/3 of it, 8days max in doha per month on wide body so prepare your family on that. Leave 50/50 you’ll have it . It’s far from the best option but if you have none no need to worry they’ll call you for sure.

Nothing strange. All Qsense.
They are just trying to see how many new potential slaves there are out there, so they can adjust the terms and conditions (aka blood and sweat squeezing) accordingly.
They also fired most of the HR that got rid of us in the first place (karma), most likely including the entire flight crew recruitment team. Type rated or not, as with anything in QR they plan a maximum of 2 weeks ahead with data of 8 months ago so it wouldn't surprise me if after you finish the ground courses suddenly you'll be transferred to a different fleet (and indeed with a bond), starting all over again.

I agree with this. Instead try to give some advice such as
-Get Life insurance
-Get divorce lawyer and finances sorted
-Wave goodbye to kids and family
-Check your company accommodation well since when you move out they are gonna rip you off for damages that were there.
-Make sure you don't have asthma and enjoy noise construction 24/7
- Take a medical insurance at home since health care in Qatar can be poor and company covers nothing
-Make sure you're fine flying to warzones in Somalia Afghanistan or Almaty. Check your life insurance covers this.
-Don't take a loan in Qatar
-Keep your license at home valid as any day can be your last and it might not be your fault.
-If you happen to have an accident with the first race, don't bother it's your fault even if it's clearly not so don't loose sleep you already will have few with 170h duty
Last but not least wear your helmet and jacket, saves you a caution letter and a fleet office visit.
Best of luck to all!

Unfortunately, this is Qatar Airways IT at it's finest. It doesn't improve once you join.
The only way to bypass this utter nonsense is to create a new email address and re-submit your application. You will be unable to contact anyone.
Think long and hard before you submit though.
