Dubai is not perfect. But it's not _that_ bad. And I think they're trying to be more welcoming to foreigners and everybody else and ironing out other issues. But it'll take time, and won't happen overnight.

Is the situation in Dubai getting worse over time, or is it getting better?

(btw, I'm just talking about Dubai and UAE in general. For other countries in the region all bets are off; I have no idea what goes on in places like Yemen, for instance).

I guess your perspective on UAE would depend on where you come from.

If you're from developed countries like, for example, Norway, Finland, and perhaps even USA, Dubai is going to look worse off.

But plenty of people in Dubai are from countries even worse. So for them, Dubai is definitely an upgrade.
