Hi, guys i have concern regarding my salary, ive got a job offer here in doha graphic designer position salary is 3500QR including free housing and transpo, before i accept this offer I'm working as a senior graphic designer / creative director in Philippines but my salary there is not enough to sustain my future plans so i decided to accept the offer since its so hard to find the position i really want and then now i realized, isnt my salary is too low for my working experience? because i saw the  assistant manager salary of the restaurant of our company is higher than mine, but my work load as of now is very low like creating flyers and menus, facebook banners all basics and im only working 6hrs a day 6 days a week. ive been working for almost 2 months right now.

thank you guys for all your comments ,and Yes im currently now here in Qatar i may not thought about it thoroughly but in my case since im a first timer here maybe they need to evaluate me first on what i can really do then i'll wait for maybe 6 months and if they are satisfied lets see what will happens next. but for now ill just finish all the projects and is there a creative or art director here? i want to know the salary :)

Don't accept 3,500QR for graphic designer, atleast minimum 5k including housing & transportation for first timer. I'm filipino I'm earning 15k QR but still not enough, well it depends how you spend your salary, in my case I'm paying more credit :D

You will be spending QR 1000 monthly on your food and other miscellaneous expenses. Based on this and your present income, you can make your own calculations whether to accept the job offer or reject it.

Why worry about what others are earning. You were happy to come here on the salary offered. Give it a few months , work hard and then ask for a raise

to low bro, i bet your salary in your home country above 2000 QR if you are a senior like you said. usually they don't really care about your work exp in your home country except you have exp in gulf region.
