17K Salary

My friend is an expat in Riyadh, she’s 25 years old, 3 years and 6 months experience in the field of VCs, business accelerator and incubators as a project manager (distributing funds, companies due diligence, managing hackathons, innovation programs with banks etc).

They are offering her a salary of 17K, is it fair? For the field? For the years of experience?

For her field and experience, it is within range. I know people getting paid around that much with a similar profile.

Could you mention the firms they work at? Or ideally, if we can talk to them.

Is that total comp or just base?

Total

It depends a lot on the entity she’s working at - at a lot of them, this is about right (maybe a bit low, would expert closer to 19-22)

At the best ones, much lower

VC in some firms pay more than MBB. So definitely that’s a lowball, she shouldn’t accept anything below 23k

Hey Fishes,
Been working at D India as a Manager (Not USI) for past few months.
Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.
To clear few misconceptions
1. Global projects are available here
2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri
