Hi all,
Need your advice on the job offer I recently got for an experience of 11 Years in Project Management.

Details as mentioned below:

Designation: Manager, Project Management
1) Monthly Gross Salary = AED 22,000 CASH
2) 2 People Insurance + Monthly OPD Charges
3) Performance Bonus (no amount specified): AED 40,000
4) 24 Days paid leaves
5) Monthly Petrol Card : AED 1500
(This is all what i will get, nothing more than that)I have got a family of 2 (me + my wife). We want to lead a normal/average living standard in UAE.

Please explain the estimated per month expenses we will be incurring in respect of:

1) Rent of 1 Bed Room聽 Apartment (A normal good one, not luxurious)
2) Utilities (Electricity + Water + Good speed Internet+ any other if any). Furthermore, plz let me know whether these utilities are normally included in apartment rent?? We will be using much of the ACs due to high temps. Please explain whatever you know in this regard.
3) Grocery/food (once a week DINE OUT for 2 persons (a good average one, not very expensive))
4) Entertainment (Movies etc.)
5) Renting/ Buying Small Car
6) Any other monthly expense which I might be missing

Needful advice from anyone will be helpful for take decision.

Note: I am already earning Rs 21 Lakh/annum package in India. So want to decide whether it's a fair call or not.

Thanks in Advance.

136

my advise do not compare your life in india with uae, in that case, you will find everything very expensive in here.
start new, your salary is good enough for two people. including house rent, don't hesitate, take a decision.

good luck

A comfortable 1 bedroom apartment in a good location will start at 9.000AED. Housing will be an important budget but on the other hand there is no income tax in UAE.

I hope you will have a pleasant experience in UAE.
