Hi all,

I have accepted a job offer from NEOM ENOWA and am currently going through the visa process. My degree attestation is in process including police checks.

Regarding the acceptance of offer, it has recently been announced in my existing company in the UK that all employees are getting a 10% pay rise. This has been confirmed in writing and the new enhanced payments will start from July 2023.

Previously, I did let HR in NEOM know that this was coming and it was only reasonable to revise my offer based on my new salary, to which they declined. Now that I have a written confirmation from the company and because the pay rise is in the same year as I am joining NEOM, I plan to push back on it and get a revised offer. Has anyone anyone had the experience of changing job offer in this way?

It does make quite a substantial difference to my pay per month. I have been offered a grade 5 job.



Regards,

Hi Everyone,

I just went through my rounds of interviews and shared my pay slips with HR to determine my salary + 25%. I was told my pre-tax salary is higher than the range allotted for the role, which is a Job Grade 5 I assume (Project Lead).

HR recommended I try my net salary + 25%, which will come to roughly 42,000 SAR. I was told this was also higher.

I've read that a Job Grade 8 starts at 70,000 and Job Grade 7 at 60,000, so I assumed Job Grade 5 starts at 40,000.

Can anyone please help me figure out if what I'm being told is true regarding the Job Grade 5 salary range being below 42,000 SAR?

I'm curious to see how this works out for you as my situation is similar.

Same here, not exactly in the same situation but waiting to hear from NEOM's HR. Applied for a manager's role but based on info from this forum my current salary plus 25% uplift will be 34K SAR. So very curious to know thats it for a salary (and hence actual role downgraded) or any chance to really get offered a manager's starting salary.

34k would put you in the Grade 5 range - Not manager, but a 'lead' / 'specialist' position.

I guess my issue is the whole 25% uplift concept and the notion of title being tied to your pay. I wasn't aware of the bands associated with the grades at the time (in fact, I didn't even know there were grades until coming across this forum), only the 25% uplift that the recruiter stated. So it seems that 1) the adjustment of level/role based on previous pay is not automatic and 2) the 25% increment (or any increment) is also not automatic.

That being said, I'll just accept what's offered. It'll be a pay cut and a role/level lower than what I'm currently doing, but my family is keen on the experience and so am I. That's the price to pay I suppose.
