Can't speak for Dubai, as I'm in Abu Dhabi. Judging by the number of people I know who've been given their Don't Come Sunday awards lately, I should think things are not as glitzy as they appear. When they are trying to institute pay cuts in the face of reported intentions of giving pay rises it makes me wonder whether there is a serious amount of spin doctoring going on here - or if they've decided to push out 'expensive' Western expats in favour of cheaper ones from elsewhere.
