Yes, it's very common for those contracts to be rolled over several times. From the employers side a known performer is much less of a risk than a newbie. Surprisingly, many arrive and for what ever reason aren't suited and are back home at the first opportunity. Keeping your nose clean is definitely a required skill. Again, many arrive and go completely overboard and wonder why their contracts are not renewed.
Cheers. G.

However, my number 1 rule is to stay way below the radar and to carefully think through any activities that might be border-line questionable. In today's litigious environment, one false step or error of judgement can destroy a career.

Don't forget the most important part of an expat posting: negotiating allowances due to the tremendous strain you will be put under 🤔.
HA is a Hardship Allowance due to the incredible difficulty of being locked in paradise.
CoLA is a Cost of Living Allowance to assist with $5 beers and $20 pussy.
Enjoy. G.
