Hi. I wonder if anyone can tell me what EF are like to work for in Saudi. I hear they offer about Euro 25000 a year. I know it isn't great by Saudi standards but I would like to hear from anyone who has experience/knowledge of them. Do they honour contracts etc?
Thanks in advance

I have a friend who works for them and he's had nothing but problems. He has been there for a year and still does not hold an iqamah.

EF Jeddah is supposed to be OK. I've never heard anything good about the other locations.

The IGAMA is the ID card issued to foreigners working in KSA. To be without one for 12 months must be disastrous.

You are supposed to have it with you at all times. To send money out of Saudi you must present i at the bank or bureau de change.

If your employer cannot fix this then look elsewhere.

Be warned.
