Yes. Depends on role and duration but historically the gigs are very lucrative. However, Covid & low demand have forced Aramco to pull a large segment of the ex-pat community out of Damman so not sure what the “new” comp looks like.
Happy to provide more context. DM if u want to talk

Very lucrative, I have seen 50-100% uplifts compared to similar U.S. based roles.

Hello Fishes,
My brother is a b.com graduate(2020 passed out) and looking for a job.
The problem here is because Finance jobs requires exceptional skills and academics due to which he is not able to get shortlisted for most job interview screening, he is receiving interview calls from great companies but not able to convert them.
If anybody can help even with an Internship position at their firm that would be a great starter to his career.
