Well. It's probably way better than the current pay at my PwC African office.
Plus no tax. I'm very frugal, so I'd probably save something if I take up the offer

Do not go for below 20k aed

DM for more info

Another person who was recruited from my office says they offer between 11K to 15K AED. 15K AED for those who can speak Arabic

Consultant are paid 10k per month and seniors consultant 12k per month

Thank you

In all seriousness do not expect a lot of $ form audit in Dubai. The work load is beyond crazy and it does not compensate for to at all. I have seen people from UK , Brazil have a tough time to settle well in audit in Dubai. Clients are not very knowledgeable so you end up doing everything by yourself

I am interviewing at a Production Studio and it’s going well. The majority of my experience is agency side. They mentioned base salary with commission, as they want to see growth in the next 3-5 years. There has been no talk of salary yet. What does a base salary for an EP with commission usually look like in this role? What should I be asking for? I don’t want to give up my current salary, but I think this job would be such a great fit for me. Advice?

So, we will see how we look when we trade 9855.75 on NQ.
