Pros

There are no valid, rational reasons for taking a position here.

Cons

The conditions here essentially make it a sweatshop. The contact hours are overwhelming, management finds it appropriate to threaten and harass staff, staff is herded onto a cramped bus from Bahrain to KSA and then for an hour long trip to work everyday and staff is routinely fired without cause.

Pros

Salman, the HR, was a gem, always had an open door policy, always responded on WhatsApp; Always provided documentation when required such as pay slips, permission letters to open bank accounts and rent apartments etc.; Easygoing with exit re-entry visas; Paid on time; Received bonuses.

Cons

When I first joined them in 2018, there were delays in the salaries for the first couple of months. In the final year of their contract with the university, they didn't pay the teachers for the last 3 months if I remember correctly. Teachers complained and raised cases to the Ministry. All was resolved in the end though.
