Strengths
1. Huge opportunities
Saudi Arabia is the largest construction industry in the middle east and it is expected to
continue its growth in the next few years with the value of the projects planned and under
way estimated at over USD1 Trillion  Covering Transport. infrastructure, utilities,
education, healthcare and many other sectors. This makes it the perfect location for job
hunting (Saudi Build, 2015)
2. Continuity
One of the most important aspect of your career is continuity.

If you are employed, it does't mean that your job is eternal. You need to make sure that you
are employed with a successful company that is constantly opening new projects and new
projects mean that you are more likely to stay longer in your job.

As shown above, Saudi Arabia constantly growing construction market will guarantee you
continuity and security for your professional career.

3. Peace and Security


Saudi Arabia is among the few countries that has high control over risks and security threats.
I can assure you that you will safe from the moment you step on its land

W. Weaknesses
1. Happiness at work
Now more than ever, companies in Europe and America are going all out to to provide a
wonderful experience for their workers. Ensuring that they’re happy, engaged, and having
fun at work. Work-life integration is becoming common for companies of all sizes. However,
this is not yet the case in Saudi Arabia. Unfortunately, the mentality is more headed towards
increasing work loads and reducing overhead.

Therefore, if you are good at your job, you are more likely to receive tasks than appreciation.

2. Work life balance 


Before you consider working in Saudi Arabia you have to be fully aware of the work-life
balance. This aspect is the most important to keep you going, motivated and productive.
However, in Saudi Arabia you are more likely to be in constant pressure because of the high
working hours especially in the construction industry.

Even if you have spare time after your work, be ready to limit your maximum levels of
entertainment with home cooking, restaurants and cafes because literally there is nothing else
you can do.

O. Opportunities
1. Professional network
Saudi Arabia is simply a talent magnet. In line with this multi-level growth, the government
plans to invest approximately US$ 400 billion between 2015 and 2020 under the provisions
of its tenth 5-year economic development plan. Therefore, more talented professionals will
come to the country and  this means that you will more likely end up meeting new
professionals everyday.

2. Saving
Unlike United Arab Emirates and Qatar this country will give you the opportunity to save
more out of your income. You can rent an apartment, a studio, or even a villa with a garden
with reasonably cheap price comparing to other locations, due to its enormous size, real estate
is available anywhere around multiple cities. In, addition, and i am sure everyone knows that
the price of gasoline is cheaper than water.

Saving more money means multiple opportunities to invest and increase your income.

T. Threats
1. Losing interest
Constant pressure, low entertainment, physical inactivity, less time to socialize, all of the
threats might lead to spontaneous moments of depression. This might lead you to losing
interest in your job or even reducing your productivity levels.

Conclusion
If you are a person that can sustain the above mentioned difficulties means that you can adapt
in any country in the future.

To sum everything up, i personally think that the benefits of going to Saudi Arabia for Work
overcome the disadvantages due to the high opportunities that you will have in saving,
investing, and expanding your professional career.
