Depends on the professsion. Many Americans are happy to work in Saudi.
Very truePhillipino and south east asian women are hired as nannies/housekeepers and are then tortured by their employers. Some of them are raped/burnt and are locked in to prevent them from escaping. A lot of countries that send workers to the middleeast are now demanding safe working conditions. India now refuses to send ANY workers to the middleeast for that reason. For some reason the orientals are the worst paid.Other workers such as plumbers/electricians and other manual labourers are all housed in some steaming hot warehouse where they are rarely paid and fed. They can't fly back becuase they can no longer afford to buy a return air ticket.
