New in Riyadh

4 years ago
Hello

I'm supposed to move to Riyadh next year. My question is how much the salary should be if:

- I'm alone
- Furnished Studio apartment with access to pool is what I need
- I don't cook, so will order most of my food
- I don't drive, so I will use Uber / taxis to get around,
- Flights, insurance are paid by company

They offered 18500 SAR, Is that fine?
Should it be more? This is a senior software developer position.

I guess that's not enough right? How much should it be?

I just want to live a safe, comfortable life, nothing too luxurious. I want to be able to get to places in Saudi (tourist places), I want to travel to the seaside cities (Jeddah, Khobar).

P.S.: What about exist visas, no objection letters? Are those still a thing in Saudi?

Thanks in advance!
