Actually, there are not fewer good employers (ignoring the crash of HCT conditions... the largest employer), it is just that most, of not all, of the new employers who have tried to jump onto the petrodollar gravy train are consistently poor. They are all about the money... ignoring student needs... and (ab)using the teachers to advance their financial goals.
Overall working and living conditions have deteriorated with the rise in population in the Gulf... in general (traffic and housing) and in number of students. The population boom of the local people is a lot of the problem as these kids are hitting the system (rather like the US schools in the 60s with baby boom). The classes are larger and the student expectations have become completely unrealistic. More and more of the students expect (and parents demand) to get high grades for merely showing up... and then get a high paying job when they finish skating through learning as little as possible.
There have always been but a handful of what I consider good employers in the Gulf. After all, it isn't a very large or highly populated area.
