I just got an offer from Cairo as a marketing manager of new products, wonder how's the salary there. US$1500/month is low or medium? Any answer would be appreciated.

Hi Rebecca

According to Salary Explorer the package being offered seems to fall within the average range of wages offered in your field. 

The best indicator of whether your salary will be able to sustain the lifestyle you're used to would be to compare the salary to living costs in the country. Our Cost of Living in Egypt page is fairly up to date, and would be a good indicator.

I'd also have a look at our Working in Egypt page, and our article on Expat Contract Negotiation is worth reading as well.

Good luck!
