i only do consultancies on specific projects so am not a big authority on the retainers for full time jobs. though i do know someone working on one of the SCADA system for honeywell’s oil and gas division and he is doing pretty well. you should also factor in some of the other associated costs such as getting sensible housing in a good place. all in all i cant say its bad, the only downside is the racial and class segregation, had a very annoying case where i was once driven in a different car from one of my colleagues (make/model everything), we were even put up in two different hotels and i took a lot of complaining from me to correct that (didn’t understand how they wanted us to brainstorm on the project when staying in two different locations). also be ready to learn Arabic quickly, you can be in a meeting and all of a sudden they go off in Arabic for ages

i believe on this one @kush yule mnono is the right person to give you specifics

asanda is also correct if you come from cambodia, sande is only western

Clearly you haven’t been there.

Huko,moto wa kuotea mbali.

share your experience…

All I can say is it will greatly depend on who your employer is and what extras you have as your employment package. Eg some employers provide accomodation and transport for their employees (btw accomodation ni noma unless mnaishi majamaa kadhaa and you share the rent), so you end up saving alot on the rent.

Mambo ya pombe si noma as long as you have your liquor licence unaenda ku buy kwa liquor store at a cheaper price unarudi kukatia kejani. Kàma wewe ni kitombi kuna machuom utapata lanye dubai. It all depends na uzito wa mfuko yako with wafilipino na wahindi wakiwa the cheapest na waRussia nao inataka ma billionaires kama @rollout hivi

Hii 45k mostly ni kwa zile construction companies zimejaa wahindi. Makampuni kama Al-Futtaim wanalipa poa especially ukiwa na experience kwa technical/mechanical field.
