Firstly Alexa... SA is way more expensive than Qatar....

Justlanded... let put it this way.... 8000 Riyals is equal to R16 000. Remember that you don't pay tax here. So if you are earning less than that back home... and its possible, then you are scoring here. Esp if they give you a car, and accomodation. Those are two huge expenses that you don't have to pay every month.

The hours and work days are standard in Qatar's private sector.

The villa's are huge, trust me.... you will feel like you are living in a mansion. However, you will need to be careful about your fiance staying over. Your housemates might not like it and could report the issue..you will then have to face the consequenses. Also, becareful about company bi-laws. In most companies, if they bring you over here, you have to stay with them for 2 years at least. They won't release you to another company before that. They would rather send you home first.

Hope this helps a bit.
