Hello everyone'

I've got an offer from Qtel in middle technical/management with all inclusive QR30K.

anyone experience with Qtel working environment, kindly share your comments. plz .

what is average cost of living in Doha, can i survive considering not to opt for a lavish lifestyle ?

is it worth leaving Saudi Telecom SAR 25K offer?

appreciate your kind feedback,

best regards

cost of living is pretty pricey ntasa, but on 30K you would be fine, not lavish but pretty comfortable for sure

thx for the comments.

this one was specific to a close (expat) friend of mine, recently moved to Doha from Saudi.

I don't need a job for myself, though I do like to work.

you are right, i really don't know the cost of living in my own country. :)

ntasa you list your nationality as Qatari but you don't know the cost of living in your own country? Why are you working in Saudi, I'm sure as a qatari you'd get a decent position in Qatar, prob on a better salary than 30K with Qatarization going on...

seems like a good offer

Also are you single or do you have a family as that will depend if that wage is enough

Life in Saudi is much cheaper than here. But you'd be sacrificing the quality of your life for money. Your choice

This is an attractive package. Depends really on how you are going to live here:

Villa living is between 10 -14 000QR/month for something nice, and apartment living is between 6500 -8500QR/month for a 2-3 bedroom. So what you will be saving will depend on how you are living. Good luck!

You can get an apartment for around 6,000 Riyals (2-bedroom) in a reasonably good area, a car can be hired for 1,800 to 2,000 Riyals a month (or buy one as you won't have a problem to get finance for buying) and the rest is up to you, how much you spend on food. You can go to 5 star restaurants and pay 300 Riyals for a meal or go to the shwarma shops and other more simple restaurants and pay less than 30 Riyals.

There is choice for every taste/price/possibilities.

I would never consider Saudi - I wouldn't want to live in 'jail'.
