Hi Sparkling,
Both 3D and J are right...
First i would like to know ur nationality. Here white people (like british or US) and locals getting more salary (not because of position, the government tries to keep dubai as a multicultural environment, thus those companies get visa faster). You can keep pet with you, but I think its difficult because of living conditions.
U have a salary of more than 240 thousand Dirhams there. So its better than UAE, otherwise ur position must be a very good one. In Dubai u cannot find a single bedroom room hall apartment below 40,000 Dirhams a year. Its varying upto 80,000 depending on the location. Other expenses are very cheap comparing to UK. Here u dont need to pay income tax. The tax is applicable only for a few items like alcohol, star hotels etc.
And the other attracting thing is facilities. You can get everything (may be better than UK) here.... like horse riding, skuba diving, sky diving, clubs, beaches, mega shopping malls, everything...
and at last.... Dubai is a beautiful please
