Lebanese relocating to Qatar
By TheEinstein •
I am project manager relocating to Qatar for new Job.
What should I ask as basic salary?
What should I expect as expenses? (House allowance, food, going out…)
Is there anything we should be aware off before going there?
I appreciate any help.
Thanks All
This discussion was very helpful for me.
I will be able to crush them in the package discussion :P
Hope we will see you all in Qatar (Not the stupid comments people :P)
Byezzz
Lebanese drive Porsche or BMW!
I'm sure a lebanese man would not be seen dead in a Kia!
Normal Car : KIA , TOYOTA , HONDA
Come on Elias, Beemer at worst!
Sorry for the repetition
You beat me to it!
Don't forget the pointy shoes and hair gel!
hey ..
i will give u a list :
HOUSES
1 Bed room : btw 4000 - 7000 QR
2 Bed Room : Btw 6000 - 12000 QR
Villa : Btw 14000 - 25000 QR
( All depend on the area and luxury level )
FOOD
Normal : 100 to 150 ( for family maybe more , also depend if you will cook in house )
Going out : at least 100 QR and if you go for any hotel more than 200 QR and drinks are so expensive x 3
CAR
Normal Car : KIA , TOYOTA , HONDA
Between 1500 to 2000 QR per month
other brands are more than that .
as for an average salary .. between 25 to 30 K as a package .. but all depend on the company you will work for .. your field of experience .
ta7eyete :D
25,000 QR basic, plus housing, transport allowance and education at the American school. (not cheap)
Arabic resturant, anything from 50 QR per person to 400 QR. American resturants here suck...
I have a 6 years’ experience that is divided between Congo Africa, France, Lebanon and KSA.
I am in the field of software engineering and consulting.
Other questions:
Average meal cost in a good Arabic or American restaurant?
Car loan cost and gas per month?
What entertainment is there and what is the average cost?
Thanks again.
Depends on your experience and the company you are working, 25-30K would be an average bet.
Don't forget to bring your pointy shoes. Since the Poppadom riots of 2008 there has been severe shortage.
As for the PM role, what industry is it in?
