with regards to the cost of living in KSA, the offer is still okay, so grab it!

U'll save only if u r single, but if u think to bring ur wife then no way,and ur saving will be about 1000~1500 at a moderate living and u shall deduct the cost of ur family

You are just above the savings line... you might be able to save a bit should you keep a track of your expenses & live a moderate life !

all the best,i cant advice if your salary is fine, as i have no idea of your previous experience,,,but this salary for a sales engineer at entry level is good.

all the best.

this salary is less cost of living in doha is vry high u will not save a single riyal with this may be even to survive in doha it will be difficult for u with this salary negotiate for more. if u have any other good job dont leave that

dont ever multiply with your country currency you may feel its too much but in reality you will not save anything

With this salary u can save around 2000 from Basic and 2000 from Accomodation and in total around 3500 to 4000 pm. But you have to find accomodation around 3000 to 4000 PM. Finding the accomodation in this range is very hard but not impossible keeping in view the decrease in rent from last couple of months here in Qatar. I wish u good luck and the salary is enough if u have experience in your field around 5 to 7 yrs

WIth this salary you will just manage things in Doha. Forget about any savings.

That may be just enough to survive..Because accomadation may consume all of the accomodation allowance. You will be left with basic salary 4000 + car allowance. May be you have 2000 left after groceries, at the most. That is a rough estimate.
