Accommodation provided by the company could mean sharing a room with six work colleagues. You need to be more specific.

There is no mention of whether it is on a sharing basis. All it says is a fully furnished or semi furnished flat or apartment, with air-con, curtains and kitchen items.

They give commuting allowance due to project located in Ras Laffan. Expats are either housed in Doha or Al-Khor.

As for 3 years contract, I think there are both pros and cons. At a time of global uncertainties, people with contracts are in secure employment. The downside is that people cannot leave if they are not happy.

Are people suggesting the pay is too low?

I would insist on living in Al Khor. The Doha - Ras Laffan drive is the stuff of nightmares.

Firstly, in which country and how long is the contract?

Ummmm, what is the job??? If this package is for a brickie, then it is outstanding and I would definitely suggest accepting, however if this is for a brain surgeon, then I would go back and ask for some more.

Default Re: Position in Qatar

the position is engineer with Qatar Gas.

To shiftdelete, if a company sacks someone on contract, then the company would have to pay compensation, is it not?
