Sovereign Wealth Funds Middle East - Associate Comp+bonus???

I heard that a lot of these associates at QIA and ADIG earn north of $200k+ $300k for senior associates tax free

and that they also get housing and transportation allowance north of $35k

is this true??

If you're an analyst at a BB bank in dubai or qatar and you wanna move to a sovereign wealth fund, would that be considered a bad career move??
