Is a 31k salary competitive in the market? Big 4 manager. Also how does that compare to the COL in Dubai. Moving there from Europe with a family of three. Spouse won’t be working as our child is only a few months old.

Firstly, 31k for M is too low even at a big 4. Secondly, 31k as a single income household with a family of 3 is going to be very tight. It’s manageable and you can make it work but you would need to compromise on a lot of things (house location, vehicle, entertainment expense, etc).

Also keep in mind that schools are very expensive and that the Big 4 only covers a portion of the fees.

Tips for 6-month eval? Originally hired at 35K as assistant and was told if I performed well, I could expect to make 50K after a year. After one week, the operations manager resigned and I took over as a trial. Officially am operations manager, but no title (only verbal) and no raise. Owner likes benefits over big pay raises. Thinking about asking for 46K, new cellphone and official title change. I'm expecting some negotiating, which I've never done. 24F, AA Bus Admin, and overall good employee
