How Do Academics Manage their Stay and Career Prospects during their International Assignment? An Exploratory Analysis

Résumé

Through a multi-level analysis, this paper aims to investigate the direct effects of Pay Satisfaction (a), Work-life Balance (b), Perceived discrimination (c), Cost of living (d), and Family encouragement back home (e) on Perceived Career Opportunities (PCO) and Intention to Stay (IT) in the host country. A web questionnaire was performed and administrated to a sample (N=156) of Tunisian and Egyptian university professors working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The results of the empirical study indicate that there are significant positive and negative effects of host country factors in different relationships with PCO and IT. The findings shed the light on how the benefits and challenges of the host country shape the expatriates’ behavior. Additionally, the findings contribute to the limited literature within this field of study.
