i sugguest if offers aer similar go for Oman..... but do research on oman as i know nothing, i recenetly moved from dubai to Qatar but been 3 months unable to get visa yet and no sign off it, obviously depend upon yoru nationality but than sponsering families and parents very difficult especially on residence visa.. oh yes you also need EXIT visa to go out.. so  not only get in is difficult but goign out as well.... until and unless if u r employer is good and allocate you multiple exist visa... u will be stuck GOD forbid if you have emergency and need to leave company at middle of night or on weekend.... other than that i like the place, small but good, cost of living is slightly expensive than Dubai.. just my two bits.. however depending upon offers take calculated risk...have fun
