A sales manager with over 35k as FS says? I think that's over-reaching a bit unless he's got ALOT of experience.

You may ask for:

Company Car(4 X 4) with petrol reimbursement

Housing Allowance OR Ask Company to provide Accomodation:

Present housing rent rates are:

Apartment QR 9,500 to 12,500 (Furnished 3 BHK)

Villa QR 15,000 to 22,000 (Furnished OR Semi Furnished)

If you are living in a villa in Canada then you & your family may not like to stay in Apartment.

If you have school going kids then:

Education Assistance

Utility Allowance to take care of Water & Ele. exps.

Transportation Allowance

Annual Bonus OR Insentives (Performance based)

Medical+Life+Group Personnel Accident Insurance

Annual Vacation atleast for 1 month with to & fro ticket for self and family

Club Membership OR Recreation Allowance

Last but not the least.......NOT to be shy to negotiate salary and packages before joining because after joining you may find yourself trapped and may not be in a position to negotiate your terms.

FS...looks like someone is trying real hard to win that weekly prize of the best answer...LOL...ok I will let you do the answering provided you promise to take ME for that lunch or dinner alright...DEAL...Handshake...LOL

Earen, yea pretty much what FS has told you...I would really say get your company to provide you with the accomodation rather than allowance, if they still insist then the figure for that would be atleast QR 10,000 - 11,000/- and not less for the 3 B/R place...(Furnished ofcourse)

And yes the other benefits are pretty much yearly travel passage for u and family, and covering of Medical Insurance...thats pretty much it, with ofcourse 30 days paid leave every year...!!!

Basic - 15- 18 K

Car - Most companies provide cars for the Sales Managers

Accommodation - Better to ask for a furnished 3 Bedroom apartment as it is really difficult to find a good apartment for not less than 10K

Plus - Family Medical Cover

Plus Yearly ticket for you and your family

I dont think Pvt companies give education allowance for kids.

Plus - Bonus/Commission
