Pros

Introduction to the industry and meeting really good people who also go through what you are experiencing. you become close during the difficult time at BH.

Cons

Where do I begin..... -You have to pay for everything, your car, your phone, road tolls, if you dont have a support structure here I would say dont come. Its sooo expensive in Dubai. -Its very expensive getting set up and doing this job, they give you nothing and you will need deposit for rent, for the rental car, for a UAE drivers license, for food, clothes , phone, RERA course, the list goes on and on. BH gives you noting for free. Its a risk free gamble for them. -If you leave before completing 6 months with the company you will get an automatic 1 year labour ban from the government. Be very wary of this as not one person in HR or management will tell you this. Its actually disgusting. Once you receive the ban you cannot get another job with leaving the country for 1 year. -Its a numbers game for BH, the more people through the door the more chance of finding that 1 out of 100 people who last more than a few months. At little to no cost for them but a huge financial cost to them. Thats why they like Brits as they generally have more money to gamble with due to the currency conversion. -They will try and make you pay for the "training" if you leave before 6 months. AED 7000. Its a joke. - You need a LOT of money to start this in this job, whatever they tell you, double it! Of the 9 people who started with me, 1 is still in the company, of the 12 before me not 1 lasted, the 15 before not 1 lasted. I saw so many people suffer severe financial loss due to joining BH. They were all sold a dream which didnt exist. yes there are people who make it but the odds are so bad. Ask yourself, am I really that 1 person out of a 100 who will make it. Alternatively do you have 12,000 pounds to more than likely waste???? I didnt and deeply regret getting coned by this company.

Thank you for your review, however we are not based in the US so I think this review maybe for a different company. I can assure you that there is plenty of work here in Dubai to keep our Agents extremely busy and we do not offer any part time or temp jobs.
