DUBAI/UAE offer, how much ask in terms of salary?

I work for McKinsey, as a 2nd year EM (about to be AP within next months) consistently being rated 4/5 and being interviewed for a consulting firm in UAE

Current salary is 235.000 USD ***NET*** (13k net monthly + 81k net in bonus; to make fair comparison)

Any recomendations on salary I should ask? Any recommendations on what role I'd be applying/should be ok? (they haven't disclosed that yet)

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
