Salary suggestion

Hi All,

I have just received a very interesting position in Riyadh and not knowing much about Saudi Arabia I was wondering if you could help me to understand if 40K SAR per month + 30% annual bonus is a good salary.
I am aware this can be a broad question but I hope you can give me an advise and/or some reference.

Many thanks

Very broad and generic.   Specific answers will require your current status, whether you are moving with family or not, what other elements are covered e.g. medical, schooling etc. and your lifestyle.

On an overall basis, it is a considered a good salary.

Hi XTang,

Many thanks for this.
I would move alone, full health insurance would be offered and 2 return trips home per year.

I would like to live on my own and have a car, perhaps travelling to Dubai, enjoying the life in Riyadh and explore the regions around too.

The idea it's obviously to save some money too.

Many thanks

The live cost herein Saudi cheap, for housing I prefer you a compound to have such facilities like gym or swimming pool, ... etc the lifestyle in a compound it's quite different and you will need this of course, coz the life little boring and the cost of good compound starting from 40k to 60k a year paid in 2 installments, and if any other info you may need to ask please specify so easy i can reply.

BUT, please note the lifestyle in Saudi not like Dubai or any other country,
Finally wishing you all the best, hope to welcome you soon.

As a single person with healthcare covered, you should be quite comfortable in this salary range.
