A chance to move ahead in career

Hi fellow Expats,

Thanks for creating this website. I find it very useful.

I have recently gotten an offer from a company in Bahrain ...

1100 BD every month + Fully furnished villa (to be shared with colleagues) + office Transportation.

Now This is a golden chance to move ahead in career and save some good bucks.

But few things are keeping me away from taking the offer.

1. The recent political situation in Bahrain
   I have looked up in the media (internet) and read some articles that situation is still not 100% settled. Protests happen almost every other day. I have seen in the vid's people tortured and being shot at, and killed. ..... And certainly seeing that, I started thinking again that whats the money and career growth worth, if you don't feel homely and comfortable to stay in a place ?

I would want to know regarding the political situation , as of now.

2. I am an IT guy, is this offer worth a move to Gulf ? or is it one among many ?

3. I am on a roaming profile and my employer says I would be traveling to other gulf countries as well, Is that good or bad ?

4. In Bahrain, what responsibilities does the employer have for your safety ?

----------------
Please feel free to give any other advice/tip that I should be considering .
All in all, I just want to be sure that the place I move in, is safe and homely to live in. Otherwise I would regret moving there.

Thanks in advance.
