i am currently working here in dubai and i got an offer from qatar company.. they offered 8000QAR +camp accommodation +meal and transportation is provided by the company... will this be enough to accept the offer? how good is the transportation there in qatar?
The camp at NDIA is not too bad. Cabins are only a few years old and there are plenty facilities.
Transport will be the yellow bus between camp and site - about 15 minutes driving max. Taxis tend not to call there so getting out on your own can be a hassle unless you get pally with a kabayan with a pickup truck at his disposal!
If the salary is same as you get in Dubai you should be able to save more here.
8k ++ is okay eeyouth. just ask about the camp accom. if it's porta cabin and you are used to this then good. if not, then ask them about housing allow. but if your work place is in messaeeid or ras laffan, better take the camp accom. these places are far from doha.
how bad is the camp accommodation? the project is new doha international airport. i am a filipino. and most of their employee is a filipino... i have a family but i tend not to bring them to qatar instead they will go home to the philippines....
Many married kabayans are working here in Doha with that salary+camp accommodation+meal+transpo. and their families back home are doing fine. They have bought condos or build their houses and send their kids to good schools. One 1 condition though, manage your hard-earned income.
Transport in the city is very good - there are buses, taxis,and car pools. Outside the city, buses run on schedule and no taxis but companies have their own
transport.
Doha is family-oriented and life here is more relaxed compared to Dubai and Metro Manila.
If the company is from Oil and Gas Industry or working for that Industry, then their accommodation and transport will be better. If it is normal construction company, they dont have good facilities.
As far as your question of salary is concerned, you dont need to ask, as Dubai is not so different from Qatar and the currency is also the same.
Qatar's winter months are brimming with unmissable experiences, from the AFC Asian Cup 2023 to the World Aquatics Championships Doha 2024 and a variety of outdoor adventures and cultural delights.

ok... thank you again...
I have Filipino friend, getting 5000 QR and he has his family also with him and 3 yrs old kid. Don't worry, you can manage.
Camp is temporary. So, possibly porta cabin.
yap.. eat work and sleep only... my only concern is the camp accommodation... how bad it is... if it is a flat, villa or portacabin (like dubai)...
like you share your room to 4 persons.. you got no privacy at all...
thank you very much for the information...
If you're here to work, eat, and sleep. No problem.
thank you very much for the information...
@ celeste... so 8K QAR isn't bad at all?
agreed with LP on all the comments. 8K is ok for bachelor if you are living decently and can manage your earnings.
It basically means 'sharing'. The bathroom, the kitchen, the bedroom. So, privacy adieu.

I agree with LP...
And life her is so relaxed that bachelors are excluded from many venues on 'Family Days.'
Transport in the city is a nightmare.

are you sure you want a camp accommodation? perhaps you can ask for housing allowance in lieu of this.
depends on where the accommodation is.. how many people will live with you, what kind of food.
Why dont u ask your company to provide you transportation and ask for 4k more as accommodation and food allowance.
Most importantly, 8k isnt a great salary but it all again depends on your job profile and work experience.
If you are single then its ok you can enjoy.
