Hi,

I get a job offer where they offered:
12000QAR/month (tax free). The company will also pay the car, apartment, medical insurance and baby kindergarden/school.

I would like to know if this salary is maybe not to low according to the cost of living of Qatar. I have no idea what is to less or not, and I would like also to save a nice money.

Were are a family of 2adults+1baby

What could an average of salary for a engineerin manager in Qatar?

Many thanks

Fare enough since your company will provide u car, apartment, medical and school fees too for your child.

You can save some money, but still it's depending on your lifestyle, because here in Qatar it's 30% more expensive than other GCC countries.

AlhamdulilAllah, I am also getting same like salary and living single at present and able to save some thing.

Try to negotiate...

Check/confirm work hours....

20,000 take home should be minimum for an Engineering manager position...

Here, there are two major expenses. Accommodation & Education. Daily groceries are 20-30% expensive than the other GCC countries.

So, in my opinion, if education and accommodation has been taken care of, then its a good deal.

How much you should get, I have no idea as my profession is different and it depends on the color of your passport as well.

All the best !!

It can sustain your needs but saving some of it is a big question. Cost of living is so expensive here.
