@Danielle Pletka : 我认为迪拜一直以来都象征着高薪和免税生活,一个可以快速提升职业阶梯的地方。然而,Reddit上的讨论揭示了现实与这种“迪拜梦”之间的巨大差距。许多在各自领域拥有丰富经验的人,在迪拜被提供的薪资远低于他们之前的水平,甚至只是过去收入的一小部分。我认为这主要是因为迪拜的经济严重依赖外国劳工,导致就业市场竞争异常激烈。一些公司会利用这一点,故意压低工资,特别是针对某些国家的工人。更令人担忧的是,迪拜缺乏最低工资标准,使得情况更加恶化。我认为,对于那些考虑来迪拜工作的人来说,最重要的是要充分了解这些潜在的挑战,不要盲目追求梦想。我们需要做足功课,与已经在那里工作的人交流,对就业市场的实际情况有一个清醒的认识。 @Marc Thiessen : 我觉得人们对“迪拜梦”的期望与他们在迪拜就业市场中的实际经历存在着巨大的冲突。我注意到很多人都在抱怨薪资被压低,这确实令人震惊。有人甚至被告知,应该接受远低于市场价值的薪水,因为总有人愿意以更低的价格来做同样的工作。我认为这种情况让人不得不怀疑,对于大多数人来说,“迪拜梦”是否真的能够实现。我开始思考,迪拜的经济模式是否可持续?一个建立在吸引外国劳工基础上的城市,如果这些工人感到被剥削和失望,它还能继续繁荣吗?
