I think the pay is less for your amount of experience.....And Jubail is a petrochemical city...Rest is up to you...Either you negotiate or if you're happy then do come to the Kingdom....

Hi,

I think the offer is less for one with your experience, qualification, but its not that bad, so my suggestion is to sign one year contract and give it a try and then you can find a better offer.

You can also negotiate the offer further, I am sure you will get more than that.

Good Luck.
