Re: NEOM Potential Job

the only way to get past this is to have NEOM issue exemption letter for you. If your set of skills is very unique and hard to find, the can do this. Ask your HR and manager about this option.

Tabuk does not have a camp. They started putting new joiners into hotels in Tabuk, Duba or Al Bada, because there is not enough housing in NC2 or NC1. Not sure what NC3 is, but this is probably one...

Re: NEOM leave (annual and remote)

Re: NEOM leave (annual and remote)

If you have not received the offer yet you might be surprised - they might up your pay, since you raised your concerns about the pay previously.
