Emanuel, I don't mean that comment in the negative way it sounded.

I'm just saying that in my experience, there are companies who desperately need Qatari nationals to fill various high level positions. It is some sort of requirement that the Head of this dept or the xxx manager be Qatari.

Since there aren't enough skilled Qataris to fill all the skilled positions, they compromise and put people who aren't 100% into the roles, and then expect the junior staff to make up the shortfall.

It would be rare for a Qatari to be fired or demoted for failing to execute his/her job 100%, since the employer would then have to find another Qatari who could do the job.

The sad truth is that at the moment, there just aren't enough good Qataris to go around.
