Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Don't believe I was told that. Cash in lieu if not using the provided option, is how I've always seen it.

Sounds like miscommunication, but you'll find out.

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Charging, as in costed in the compensation package?

Legal practice in the Gulf requires packages be broken up between basic pay, accomodation/board, and transport. So it's part of the offer, but...

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Does anyone know if the Riyadh airport lounges (T1 or T2) are 24hr? I see contradictory information, but I believe they are based on the airport website.

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Business visit visa is good for a year, with a maximum 90 day stay before a visa run is required. I've been told that I should be moved to an iqama as soon as the my recent degree if attested, which...

The zero/low impact stuff is definitely well-suited for me, so I'm looking forward to it.

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

That sounds pretty good, although I may not be able to experience it all that often, shuttling between camps.

That makes me think of another couple of questions. 1) are there public access showers...

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

I miss the excitement of moving to the UAE in the early 90s when it was still just picking up. No doubt partly because I've spent so long in the region, I'm not much of a drinker. Give me a Morrocan...

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Another general question: is there a scuba club? I'm bringing some gear with me, and looking for somewhere to snag weights, tanks, and refills. I've found one shop in Tabuk with a few branches in...

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Indeed. I should add for the benefit of other posters, the expectation was that everyone would to NC1. Staggered obviously based on availability, needs, and seniority. As someone on my own, I expect...

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

I had an onboarding call today and I was told to expect a one-bed unit in the expanded NC1 by the end of 2022.

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Not yet clear when I'm heading out, but really anytime after Christmas. I could realistically expect a year in NC2.

I've lived in worse, so it honestly doesn't bother me that much, as long as the...

Re: NEOM COMMUNITY UPDATE

Sliding in here as I've recently accepted a direct-hire offer, and as I'm single I'll be in NC2 as well. From the information and social media, I have a good idea of what to expect. Expectations are...
