- Pasorrijer 5y agoSure, in vague terms, there is a giant cultural problem in the Middle East where locals don't have the education or training or (more importantly) drive to actually do work, so most good employees are expats, but almost all leadership is locals because of hiring rules and nepotism. Companies are actively trying to change it, but they aren't there yet and it's an uphill battle that has to start basically at the kindergarten level. That culture also drives a major "image" focus, where how things look is more important that how things actually operate. I'm not from the Middle East, but this is what was communicated to us by our client / locals we interviewed.
