Looking for some help.

Wife is in line to have a transfer to Amsterdam next year… and I will be looking for a job when we move….

For a Finance Director/Associate director level

Currently in Pharma, but am able to go to other industries
20 years experience in FPA, M&A, and system implementation

Curious on typical pay packages:
Salary
Benefits
Vacation
Car allowance
Bonus
I want to set realistic expectations as I understand
salaries and pay packages in Europe are different

I don’t think it’s as bad as McK makes it seem. I would say higher comp than that guess but outside of consulting I’m not too informed. There is a hefty tax but expats benefit from a 30% tax shield for a time. Local school is mostly free so likely savings there and healthcare is very affordable - though it’s a different delivery model. There are lots of American companies that like to hire Americans so there’s a chance you can maintain a similar comp profile if you find the right role. But I don’t think it’ll be easy.

Yes I’m coming from the US, and my wife will convert to a local Amsterdam employee (not expat) so I really want to understand the overall picture.

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position.

I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.
