It is a horrible company. As a supplier, I have been dealing with many companies in Qatar for year now. Drake&Scull is probably one of the worst companies I have dealt with.

It starts with their procedure, documents have to get signed by a zillion people before it becomes valid. They sometimes delay this for months together because of which you can not submit your invoice. The HR manager Mr. Raed is impossible to deal with absolutely no respect for anyone.

And last but not the least I started receiving payments after about 6 months and they keep delaying it for no reason. I have stoped going anywhere near their office after my experience and i suggest you all should stay away too.

I also have a relative, working as supervisor in their firm. Even he is not happy as salary bases are not very high and their camps are in horrible condition. more like slums from what i hear.

One of their ex subcons tell me that they were blacklisted for sometime in Dubai too. If you must deal with them, make sure u have a po/contract first and a payment guarantee otherwise ur in for a ride.
