Cons
You'll find yourself in discussions related to some innovative technologies but not that cutting-edge unfortunately! FAANG and similar (MSFT, CRM, PLTR) are better and more agile in innovation matters, processes, management and innovation related compensation! Away from headquarters and Europe, in middle east you'll miss a healthy work-life balance. And the compensation is not that great. Turnover is huge... You should negotiate for one, pick either work-life balance or better compensation. And even if you negotiate for hard work and good compensation it can erode really fast because these guys don't understand inflationary pressures, management is extremely slow in reacting to financial disruptions, like Fx volatilities , over %20-%50-%80 inflation rates...
