Dear All,
I wanted to ask about your thoughts on consulting in the middle east - is it a good opportunity to start there, what would I be working on mainly in how is the region developing? Is it easy to come back to London after a few years?
Could not find much valuable info from my own research.
I appreciate it!
Many thanks.

Hi,
What company are you talking about? The scope of industries and the benefits may be completely different.
In general, the region is doing well. Not booming as 5 years ago, but still in a good shape.
Transfer to London will be possible in case of great performance and personal reasons. Again, depends on the company
