Pros

If you know how to teach and build a rapport with those whom you teach, and meet your objectives, you will be okay and management will leave you alone (as long as you do what they expect of you). The compound and housing are good. The pay is higher than most contracts can offer here in Saudi Arabia. Management will leave you alone if you show them you are competent and adept in teaching and classroom management. Compared to other ELT jobs in Saudi Arabia, it really isn't that bad. With that said, it's a job and a fair amount of professionalism is needed. If you just do what they say and see it as a job which comes with responsibilities, you will be okay.

Cons

The biggest issue in terms of teaching here is that the cadets are tired and they like to sleep, so you need to be on their case. Management wants you to deal with this, as it is happening in your classroom. If you can handle that and get through the lessons, you will do fine here. If you complain a lot and ask "why" to everything they ask of you, you will most definitely find it difficult to manage here. The same could be said for working anywhere, though. Management here will get on your case, but only if you give them reason to.

Pros

Supportive team and collaborative environment. The team is always willing to jump in and help when challenges arise. There is a strong sense of camaraderie that makes collaboration easy and enjoyable. Teamwork and collaboration are a big part of the culture here. I believe the team dynamic is one of the strongest parts of the company. Great environment to share ideas and learning from one another. Also, the flexible remote work options which helps maintaining a good work-life balance. The company's commitment to flexibility is invaluable—especially during peak project times.

Cons

Communication between departments could improve as the company evolves. While the team is collaborative and has a team-driven mentality, communication isn't always streamlined.

Pros

Wargames were joint and often times included allies and partners; this made the wargame an outstanding environment for experimenting with concepts, as well as preparing the USAF, for future conflicts. BF primarily remained hands off in how the team at Andrews AFB performed their duties--this was a plus in the team's ability to work freely with the primary--the USAF.

Cons

Nothing overly troublesome comes to mind. I do not remember ever meeting David M. West.
