Help!! should i or shouldnt i!?
Shil,
Your cousins are right.
1) very likely true.
2) yes.
3)probably not.
4)your sponsoring employer can put a ban on you if you leave and even though recent changes in law make this less of a problem, getting a No Objection Letter from your sponsor can be problematic.
5) no, but unfortunately people in the UAE are often desperate enough to accept lower salaries than the job is worth and as a result, employers offer lower salaries to candidates, especially those coming from South Asian countries.
Dubai is cheaper (at least in terms of housing), if that's any consolation.
thanks outofAmerica! maybe il still give it a shot! if i dont like it...il com bac to home sweet home india:)
