Is Saudi Arabia a good place to work for a bachelor


Is Saudi Arabia a good place to work for a bachelor?
Saudi Arabia obviously has a lot of restrictions, and I'm ok with that. What worries me is whether there's a chance to be social. From what I've read it seems like a good career choice for couples or small families that have built-in social opportunities. Do I have this right, or are there other singles, expats, living and working in Saudi Arabia?

There isn't much in the way of public social settings - bars, restaurants etc. Most socialising will be in people's homes. There are a fair number of expats working out there and there is an expat social scene you can get involved in (especially if you live in one of the expat compounds) You'll also make pretty good money tax free!
