That's 180K THB per month.
You can save 40-50K THB per month or more depending on lifestyle.

What's the base excluding tax and bonus per month in THB??

Hey, how you accepted the offer and moved there? What was your last CTC in India ?

Please help, I am in similar situation

Brother, Please respond, I need some suggestions on this.

I’m not from Agoda nor do I live in BKK. I did a bit of research and found that your fixed monthly expenses would vary between 50-60k which would constitute food rent travel and occasional social life. You’d also need to account for the fact that 2-3 years down the line your kid will need schooling and any decent international school will cut you short by 800k - 1 mill bhat per year.
You’d also want to save and send some money back home and travel occasionally. So a comfortable salary would be around 170-180k per month post taxes.

This is all assuming you are the sole bread winner

Hello Fishs,

I have given 3 rounds of interview for the position of SE- B8 , i.e. Lead SE. Now in salary discussion round i asked HR for a CTC between a range of 31-34L. But they told me max they can give is 29.5L. I still did not accepted the initial offer from HR, it is going again one more round for salary negotiation after HR confirms the bracket from Business. I know Natwest dont negotiate once you accepted the offer. What CTC can i expect from Natwest for Lead SE.

Hi Guys,

I am a ReactJS developer (frontend) with 3.8 years of experience. I currently switched my company but they don't have an opening for ReactJS and kept me on a bench for 3 months and they are telling me now to learn AEM technology and work on the AEM project for now.
They hired me for a package of 16 LPA.
So my questions are is it a good technology to learn? Should I say yes and have a career in it?
Will I get the same package like ReactJS or less? What is future if compared with React?
