Another Newbie with an Offer.... May 23, 2007
All numbers are approximate....

12,500 AED/month salary
6,000 AED/month accommodation subsidy
rental car covered
cell phone covered
does not include annual bonus
moving expenses paid
round trip flight

Is this worth me moving here for?

Thanks.

that depends on how much experience you have and where you are coming from and what field or work you are in.

if it seems like a good package to you, why not take it and see how life is with that package.

as nuzbim says... depends on many things.

If you are a street cleaner, then accept with all haste.

If you are a neurosurgeon, then you should take your talents elsewhere or enter into to some serious negotiating.

I suspect that you are somewhere between these two professions, but you get the point?

You should be able to live ok on that. You might want to ask for a bit more on the accomodation. Rather than get a hire car ask for a transport allowance. Then you can buy a car of your choice.

2 flights a year would also be normal.

Thanks everyone -- I have been in transit back across the Atlantic and was resting for a day...sorry I wasn't quite "on the ball". I appreciate everyone's assistance, even the asshole that called me out for not responding...

Peace.
