Need Salary Advice - Senior Position in IT
Hi everyone,
I would greatly appreciate if anyone could advise me on what is a good salary in Qatar for senior IT consultant position.
I am now discussing an opportunity to move to Qatar, the package offered is about QAR 31000 per month, including basic salary + annual performance bonus + education allowance for children, however NO accommodation or transportation allowance. The package also includes health insuarance for the whole family, tickets back home once a year and 20 working days of paid leave.
I have 7+ years of experience.
Is it good enough for a family of 3 (my kid is 5 y.o.)?
Do you think I can ask for more? If yes, any advice on how much more?
Thank you.
You will pay between 6-10,000 for a 2 bed apartment, depending on location. Around 2,000 on a car. Add another 1,500 for utilities. Figure out how much you may spend on general entertainment and living costs, have a target saving amount in mind and if its o.k then go for it, if you were hoping to save more try to negotiate up slightly but as a total package it isn't bad at all for 7 years experience.
