Pros

Good weather, high salary which you are losing because living in a compound (which is mandatory for foreigners by law because of security) is very expensive

Cons

Working atmosphere unpleasend, you may expect to be grounded for anything, no salary during this period and without a reason, than you need to apologize and 2-3 months later you get a duty roster again, it's a bit terifying the methods, you are kind of a slave, 10 OFF days not known in advance, often last minute published, 27 or 28 and tickets home aren't payed, requests only granted for people with connection, several open court cases because company terminated pilots unfair or end of service was not payed (usually pilots won this case 5+ years later), in some public parks in Riad you can face discrimination, locals send you away because your might have bad influence on the children. Better stay in your compound

Advice to management

treat pilots fairly because many pilots avoid your company

Advice to future employees

Only go there is you absolutely must. If you need to go expect a time from which you probably have only unpleasent memories, if at all because there is nothing to do in Saudi Arabia to remember about (living there longer)
