Hello everyone,
Better job prospects in Russia can most certainly be an incentive to leave your country of origin. Securing a contract with the right salary and benefits for you can be crucial to make your move successful.
Is salary and benefits negotiation regarded as common practice in Russia? If yes, how should you go about negotiating your package (during the hiring process, on a monthly/yearly basis...)?
What do you expect to be included in terms of benefits in your package? Which benefits do you deem necessary in Russia?
Is tax on the salary of an expat applicable in Russia or do you have to turn to tax bodies in your country of origin to pay your taxes?
Do the exchange rates of currencies impact your salary as an expat?
Looking back, are there some changes you would have made during the negotiation of your salary and benefits package?
Thank you for sharing your experience,
Bhavna
Negotiating salary and benefits in Russia
To be honest, it works very differently from the West. You have to push for your conditions and salary.
If you live in Russia for more than half the year you pay world tax here - you have a tax and insurance number and a state pension!
