Have I done the right thing?
I just knocked back a job offer with a large oil & gas company in Al Khobar Saudi Arabia. Job was the next step up the ladder from what I do here and there would have been more responsibility and the job might have had a bit more variety and challenges than my current position. The salary was pretty good as well - £80k tax free with accomodation and transport provided as well as a per diem to cover incidental expenses.
However here are the downsides; it was single status, I would have been working 6 days per week and the the rotation cycle was 90/12
My wife thinks I've done the right thing and so do I however I hope that in 6 months I don't regret not taking the opportunity
