QF has a standardized classification level that ties in with pay. The pay level depends upon the needs of the job, not on your qualifications. $25K QR plus benefits is actually a really high classification level, i think as a Senior Manager / Director type of position. $16,000 QR is more than many teachers make in Doha, so I would think that is probably a good salary, but again it depends on the job. The Housing and transport allowance makes up for any salary discrepancies you might encounter. QF is pretty fair about pay, and is an employer of choice in Qatar.
