Pros

meet some really good people and great way to network. Open contract so you can leave when you want.

Cons

48 hours straight pay a week over time is only worth 125% of hourly rate (10 hours over time per week) working of day of rest is 150% but pretty much non-existent must open bank account in UAE and when you decide to leave you need to take a taxi to the main branch to close the account and take a taxi back with proof of account being closed before they will furnish you a plane ticket (expect to pay roughly $80 for the round trip taxi fare)
