Vantaggi
The salary isn't bad for Saudi Arabia these days. Airport pick-up, decent accommodation.
Svantaggi
No IQAMA. Business visas only, which means a trip to Bahrain every month. If you're sick you get your wages docked, even if you have a doctor's note. Payment is in cash and there's no way of sending money out of the country. When we first arrived the director told the staff "Oh, just go online to get your IQAMAs" and "we can send money home for you." Neither of these things is true. In fact they don't even have a business bank account. Lies, lies and more lies. The man is like a used-car salesman. He will lose this contract at the end of the academic year (and who knows what happens to the teachers then?) and find something else for another year just to make money.
