If anyone who has worked at either of these places could spare a little information, I'd greatly appreciate it. My wife has received offers from both of them (neither particularly good, but cabin fever is starting to set in) and she's not sure who would be the better employer; if such a thing exists in the Kingdom.

If you wouldn't mind sharing a few tid-bits on the atmosphere and working conditions in either, or any information that you believe could be helpful in her making a decision, it would be a great help.

Cheers.

A colleague used to work for Wall Street. They didn't pay him for 5 months so he quit and took them to court, which he won but still hasn't got his salary over 2 years later. Justice KSA-style! Why he didn't quit or simply stop working after one month with no salary is beyond me.

They had him driving all over the Eastern Provinve to give lessons at their various offshoots and paid no transport allowance. He's still paying off debts and when things are really bad he asks the Bangladeshi cleaner for a loan .

Think you need to supply a third choice on your poll as it is...don't think many would choose either of these outfits...kind of like choosing between the fire or the frying pan - hell or purgatory...although one may be slightly worse than the other...neither seems a like a viable option...I'd rather not have a job at all, if these are the only choices.
