I have been offered a job in UAE. The offer is fixed salary UAED 18000 per month ( this includes +Basic+House rent+utilities)+ Bonus of UAED 2000. I would be there in Dubai with my wife and my infant son. But initially I would be there for three months on my own and then my wife and kid will join me after three months.
My employer has offered me -
1. Air ticket from India to Dubai ( For family)
2. Family status.
3. Medical Insurance ( 75% premium to be paid by employer and rest by self).
4. The bonus of AED 2000 X 6 months will be paid after every six months.
5. At the end of twelve months they will give me 22 working days leave with return airfare.
Is this a good offer. I earn around INR 1 lac in India.
Also, We are pure vegetarians, do not party, once a month in a restaurant, simple middle class Indian lifestyle.
What would be our expenses- Rentals( 1BHK) + grocery and eatables+ utilities + transport. We will not be having a car. Can I get a good furnished 1BHK apartment in Dubai for AED 4000/-near Discovery Gardens/Dubai Marina ( areas suggested by a friend for residence)which is close to a Hyper mart/super-mart. Please advise
I know these are multiple questions but a genuine and detailed response will be extremely appreciated.
You guys will be fine here on that salary,18k is fine, but once your son is school age, tuition fees will be a problem unless you save from now. I suggest the Gardens, not disc gardens, as its easier to access the mall and metro (both right infront of the Gardens) as remember the heat 6mo a year, plus has better play areas and is just prettier. Its next to disc gardens and also cheap but giant kitchens even in the small 1 bed. You will waste money in a furnished apt, just shop at ikea or adds posted in cafes for furniture. Not that this helps, but even in my building car park (not in gardens) over any 2 mo period apartments could be beautifully furnished by what people leave after moving out, its a waste, i end up calling a charity even. I just mean, furnish your own place, rather than pay rent on furnishings ea month. Pan Emirates has whole room packages for around 2000,even cheaper is IKEA, its a one time expense. On 18k you can live well, don’t worry. Im american/emirati and have a 2 yr old and have friends of many cultures and some make that salary and are doing ok. There is a lot to do here that costs a fortune and a lot to do here thats free, its a family city as much as its a party city or work city, it depends on what you choose. Also, to add, some big companies give education allowances at certain schools so ask about tha to help later on, otherwise plan on 3k per mo for schooling.There are 2 schools though next to the Gardens you could walk to.
