Hello fishes,

I’ve received a contractual offer from a UAE organization with a 1-year term and auto-renewal, offering nearly a 50% pay increase. My current job is stable, so I’m weighing the risks. Has anyone worked contractually with UAE companies?

Would appreciate your insights!

Thank you!

Note: I work at a startup, not Uber, unable to update due to a glitch.

What’s your yoe? I think there are are many companies with this 1 year contract thingy. You can take it if you need an international exposure. Also, you can switch later for better pay.

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.

Reps, you have a client who you’ve had for less than a year. You’ve helped them secure a couple small jobs in that time span. They book a big job with an agency that isn’t a house account but certain producers and clients at that agency are noted as house accounts. The job came through a reco from one of those house account producers. Do you charge the full 25k commission, even though you didn’t really have a hand in the sale, and the client already had a strong relationship with the agency?
