Hot places to work in ME

I’m currently a Principal at BCG and considering a move to Dubai. I don’t want to travel constantly, and I’m fairly agnostic about the exact role — I’m mainly looking for something well‑paid and intellectually stimulating. Could be IB, PE, HF, WM… open to any realistic ideas

Thanks in advance to anyone who can share insights or experiences — really appreciate
