work and life in qatar
I'm from the philippines. They offer me in qatar 3000 QR plus free accomodation and transportation to work. I wanted to know if that salary is suitable in doha, qatar. Is the cost of living in doha, qatar higher than other country like saudi etc? How much can I spend for food? please estimate. anyway I'm single.
I also wanted to know if it is okay to go out of qatar with your friends both guys and girls?
riane...
kung aku tatanungin mu makaka ipon ka pa sa sahod mung yan kung di ka magara..
labours here are paid 600qr monthly.. at kumakasya pa naman daw.. welcome to doha..
Subodh , Since you are earning in India a good Sum. there are few reasons you can stay back i.e you will be near your loved ones and all the time. and you enjoye your homeland living along with earning.
OR
Else if what you are getting in Qatar @8200 is also a good offer but not the best. You can enjoy bachelors life and save a good amount. But if you want to have a family life with it, then it would have been better for you to stay in India and enjoy life with your near and dear ones with earning.
stay where you are...and enjoy your life in india.
More than enough 8200 is almost twice as your salary in INR

The pay depends on the job and your lifestyle I guess
tingin ko ok na un..kasi sa akin ang offer ay 5k..sapat siya kasi di natin kayang kitain sa pilipinas un
3k offer is not good enough..you will just remorse it after knowing that your peer is having twice than your offer and your stuck with your job..alexam is correct better haggle your employer to increase the offer or find another suitable offer..super taas ng bilihin dito. Qatari people in general are good and humane, majority educated..Qatar being an open city is well balanced as long as you follow the norms..It is a great City with great people, not much not less..The only problem is the weather..yun lang po...
it depends upon your lifestyle actually..life here is much simpler compared in Phils..the cost of the commodities is relatively cheap and you can afford (almost) anything..if you have vices like smoking and drinking, then you have to consider to include in your budget..with regards to going out with friends from both genders, they're is no problem with that unless you do things which is "haram" and unacceptable here..also pda or no display of affection like kissing and hugging in public..as an added bonus, Qatar has been ranked the second most peaceful country in the Middle East, just behind Oman and the 33rd most peaceful country in the world.. so welcome here, kabayan!
Frankly speaking the salary offered to you is a meager one if Doha standard of living is concerned. For your food alone you have to shell out at least 800 riyals per month. Your personal needs is an additional cost of 200 riyals. So total you'll have a net salary of 2000 riyals or about 500 dlrs. Socializing is another strain in your pocket. But it's okay as long as you follow the good manners and right conduct of being a foreigner here. No public display of affection and you must dress up modestly. If you think 2000 riyals is enough savings for you then good luck and welcome to Doha.
For a skilled worker from philippines - the normal basic salary is ranging from QR 2,500 to 5,000 excluding housing and transpo allowances.
For professionals - salary is ranging from QR 8,000 to 45,000 depending on the qualification and industry.
I know some colleagues in oil & gas, banking industry and investments are even receiving between QR 50k to 80k per month.
So it all depends on your qualification and work experiences.
Good luck!
I guess it's not enough. You may bargain a little bit more...If you fail, its up to you to decide. There's no harm in trying anyway. Once you decided to quit, please be reminded that you cannot comeback within 2 years...
Salary offer depends on ur experience and jod description.
Depends on the job
its depend how u wanna live. some people living with 1500 salary.but if u will go to face shop , disco bar everyday sure not enough money but just for food i guess so 1000 riyals more than enough
it's Not enough my dear.
