Client decision. No further idea..but from what I gather, the fight for budgets on the various state funded projects is getting tougher..alot tougher. I'm expecting the purse strings to generally be tightened a lot in Saudi as they work out ways to find the endless spending.

Interviewed directly with parsons. Been made an offer. Let me know your thoughts
Principal PM
60k/month
8 on 2 off
25 days annual leave
Sal inc. of food/accomm/transport/laundry
Speaking to friends at NEOM, they mention AlUla and Jizan are the toughest gigs going atm. So expectations should be more 70-80k/ month for the remoteness and high risk zon - not sure if that would be realistic at my leve however I've pushed back on a few items.
Speaking with Parsons they seemed to not really acknowledge its location and conflict in the area. UK gov website advises against any travel there other than essential. Assuming since you've been there its not been an issue or you've felt nervous?
Is there just one camp? I've asked for details so hoping to find out more soon. But in general, a good mix of people that help to organise social events / hanging out etc?
Anythign else you can tell ,me before i sign it off officially?
