Hi Fishes,

Need your suggestions. I have 3 offers -

20k aed monthly - dubai location
40k pounds yearly - london location
40k pounds yearly - Edinburgh location

CCTC - 20lpa
3YOE
Tech Stack - Risk Management

I am looking to gain international exposure. I will move with my husband (dotnet developer), who would look for a job there on dependent visa. He is currently earning more than me here. What would be a good move considering long term?

Serious suggestions only please. Thanks

40k pound in London pretax is very very low. Your take home salary will be 2600 monthly. The average cost of rent in London is 1300 per room and you’ll need 300-500 for grocery and food. You’ll be left with a mere saving of 1000 per month which is 92k INR which is even less than your 20 LPA india salary. Not to mention you’ll need to spend on flights tickets back home and some amount on settling in. Transport and a lot more.

PS: I live in London and my CTC is 75k

Thank you all for advise. EDIT: Company in London has agreed to increase fixed salary to 50k plus performance bonus yearly.

Even that is bad

funny

London at 40k will be suicide , you might just survive in that.

You're an engineer?

How did u get chance ?

Dubai would be very good.
