Assume the recruiter wants to offer you paid relocation expenses, 400k TC, free flights home 2x yr, corporate lodging and paid training... but you'd likely be there for 2-3 years.
I could deal with the backwards culture for 2-3 years. Especially since living expenses would be almost 0.
Yes no tax
UAE is quite western. No tax.. so why not 👍
Have you investigated weather, religion, places to go, food, etc? Is a very different world with many restrictions and no places to go, drink, etc
Not true in Dubai
Lies, I been in Dubai. Hot as hell, always surrounded by non western culture, too far.
Nope. Am Jewish. Not sure that’d go over well.
I don’t think the Jewish religion matters. What matters is whether you are from Israel or not.
It depends, what’s the company? Well-known?
Nope, I’m gay. It would be a hostile place to live & work.
What if you have to come back early, say in an year. Will they make you pay back the rent for the corporate lodging, flights, etc.?
Sure, go there, get your passport seized, stay at the mercy of your local embassy and whims of a crazy govt. 400k is worth so much more than your life right?
Have you ever visited another country in your life?
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate...hate leads to suffering. Living a life fear mongering is absolutely the best way to enjoy said life ☺️
400k aint enough for that, at least for me
I make 30 I’d be ducking out of here.
Dubai has no income tax, so 400k goes a looooong way there. Even if American citizen, you save quite a bit on taxes (only federal tax, and there are foreign income exclusions, etc). Also cost of living in Dubai is lower than Bay Area.
