Offer any good?

Forum users,

I need advice on an offer from a Software Services firm to work at Qatar Airways with interests me from a career standpoint. I would be paid 17500 QAR monthly and they would provide free transportation to/from office.

A bit of background on myself: I am an Indian national living in India. I hold a M.S and PhD degree from a premier US institution. I have 3+ years of work experience and all my research and work experience relates to the skill set, I am being hired for.

I am not sure if the offer is appropriate and if I should be negotiating. I was told that the opportunity would last a minimum of 24 months; should I get this in writing so I could make the move abroad worthwhile the hassle?

Any advice on cost of living per month (rent & food) and related matter would be greatly appreciated.

With regards,
Krish.

P.S. Been very honest with my post and I am hoping for similar replies.

With just 3 years of experience, I would say it is a fair offer.

However, before deciding either way, see if your salary is at least twice what you are getting in India..
