Hi Friends,
I am planning to move to Jeddah with my family since I got a job offer from Saudi Electricity company. I will appreciate if anyone tells me what will be the approximate total expense for a family of three (myself, my wife and one 7 years old son)which may be expected with a 2 BHK flat in a decent location.
Also how is the work culture in Saudi Electricity company? How much average bonus can be expected in a year since they have not mentioned anything on this topic. Does they pay Ramzan bonus also??? If anyone can help in getting me these informations.

With warm regards

Cost of living? Here ya go. https://www.expat.com/forum/534-22-cost … eddah.html - Plenty of reading.

And, as always, let me add that one's cost of living depends entirely upon one's standard of living.
