Hi schaz

Hope you are from O&G. I got an offer of 600 OMR from Towell Engineering as Project engineer. Furnished family accommodation, utilities, car, family medical insurance all will be by company. I have a kid of 2 yrs old. with 600 omr I need to take care of my food, internet, mobile expenses for now & schooling of my kid will start probably after an year.

How will be the salary hikes annually in O&G sectors? Is the company good?

Please help me in deciding whether to consider.

Dear Friend,
Yes, Im in Oil&Gas, however there must a lot of people, else than me here at EB who belong to OG sector.

Towell Engineering is not really an oil&gas firm. They have a product supply division with a civil/structural/other contracting profile as well. But they are not at all into Oil&gas exploration or services.

The offered salary (assuming all the other expenses have been taken care by the company) seems OK, however based on your experience, you can somehow negotiate a bit. You can have a comfortable preliminary lifestyle with considerable savings till your baby reaches the school stage. Rest in detail about the cost of living, you can browse numerous topics where you can find replies from various other members in details.
