From my point of view, yes it is a good offer and you should not allow it to slip through. People here in Qatar would be happy to work at half the salary you have been offered. This is your chance to earn and save for the future.

Accabaccha: As I mentioned I'm being hired as a Field Engineer, when I do a job I receive bonuses and that's where the variable income comes and it's paid in USD. So it's not a verbal agreement rather than a job bonus. So in conclusion do you believe is a good offer? Is it suitable for me an my family?

Mauricio85: A verbal commitment has ZERO value. It may just be something to "attract" you to come here.

Accabaccha that is just a variable, it may be 0 so I don't count on It for making decisions. I'm from Colombia.

Thanks all for your comments.

I'm being hired as a Field Professional with 8 years of experience, to work in oilfield operations. I am supposed to earn between 500-1500 USD as a variable income as well.

Here is what would be your approximate expenses:

Accommodation: QR.5000 per month

Food: QR 1000 per month

Transport: QR 1000 per month if you use your own car

Miscellaneous: QR 1000 per month

The rest stays all in your pocket.

i think it is a good start, but lot of other factors do matter specially what you are leaving behind to be here. I mean your salary back home + other benefits. Also what is your role here.

In your mentioned allowances you would easily find a suitable accommodation and definitely Qatar is lovely peaceful place to live.
