Yes. My cousin.
He left for Dubai in 2017. He stayed there for 4 years then a year before he shifted to Switzerland.
He earns really well and is living a dream life.

Hii there
Any requirement for data scientist or data analytics?

The Dubai offer of AED 16,000/month (~₹43.2 LPA) may appear higher on paper than Optum India’s ₹31 LPA. However, after accounting for Dubai’s high cost of living—especially rent and schooling for two children—annual expenses can reach ₹30–35L, leaving net savings of only ₹8–13L.

In contrast, Optum India offers ₹31 LPA, where family expenses are significantly lower (~₹10–14L/year), allowing for higher net savings of ₹17–21L annually. Tax in India would be ₹4 to 5L.

》》Optum India is the more financially sound choice, especially when relocating with a family.

Can you share how you got Dubai offer?

Okay here goes. I see a lot of people saying its not worth it and things like that. Let me just say, both are good offers but both come with trade offs.

Dubai is like a mini europe. Your lifestyle changes. Safety is really high. Plenty of things to do. Plenty of experiences. People mind their own business. You may not save as much, but you will certainly appreciate the kind of life you have there. (Personal experience - lived in gulf for 25 years)

Here in india, you will save more here for sure and the level of expense will be lesser, but your lifestyle will be solely depended on which city u live in.

So the choice is between saving more vs upgraded lifestyle
