Prism - you have way way way way too much time on your hands. The salary is low for Doha CONSIDERING the cost of living. The salary may seem high to someone from Timbuktu but guess what buddy, I bet the cost of living there is just a tad lower than here. The salary might be ok depending on skills and experience but too low if the benefits are not market rate, which they are not - please see full explanation on benefits as opposed to salary which you did not quote (sorry, did it not suit your argument, didums)
