Pros
The salaries paid in the Middle East are very good. Company-supplied living quarters are excellent. However, long drives both ways to/from the work site mean very early starts and late returns to the living quarters.
Cons
Location - the Middle East is the worst place in the world to work. This is as much for weather conditions as it is politics. Six-day work weeks are too much. A person should have 2 days off to recuperate after the long, hot days during the week.
