Besides the obvious factor of the salary, what are the best things about teaching and living in UAE? What makes the UAE EFL/lifestyle experience worthwhile?

What are the factors that make life difficult and annoying? When it's time to move on, what are the typical factors that will make you conclude it's time to pack up and try pastures anew?

-Climate (for about 7-8 months out of the year)
-Big mix of cultures (can be exciting and can be frustrating)
-Decent selection of restaurants in the larger cities (see above)
-Holidays, location, and money that allow me to visit some fantastic countries anually

IMO, it was the quality of the employer (or lack thereof).
