Need Help on knowing the Work Culture, About People in Poland, Cost of Living in Gdynia

Hi,

I am an Indian with 7+ Years of professional IT experience, in Banking Domain. I've been offered in One of the reputed bank in Poland.

My work location is GDYNIA,Poland and Monthly would be 15000 PLN (Gross).
It would be very grateful , if somebody can help me out in knowing the Work Culture, About People, Cost of Living, Entertainment,Transportation, Average Salary in Gdynia, Poland.

And also Net Salary after Tax deduction, Taxation in Poland and How much one can save after all the expenses?

Your Valuable Information is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Raj

Your net salary will be around 10K.

Rest of the things senior members can advise.

By the way, have you got work permit? whats current status of your visa application?

15000 gross is 10000 net, which will be more than enough to comfortably support a young, single male will modest expectations and no bad habits (alcohol, tobacco, drugs and girls), without trips back to India or Western Europe, and allow for modest savings, which can approach 5000 PLN a month if he is frugal, careful and prudent.

For a couple, it is enough, but the savings will be considerably less.

For a couple with children, it will be a challenge, if at all possible.

Lot's of information about the other things you want to know on this forum. Use the search function.

Thank you Gauraog & DominicB

@Gauraog regarding work permit its still in progress. But need some contact details of Indians residing in GDYNIA.

Same here. My work permit is also in progress. I will be moving to Krakow.

Share your contact details if you are ok. PM me.

This number is totally irrelevant to you as a foreigner. Even as a frugal single male, your cost of living will be considerably higher than that of a single male Pole. The ratio gets worse once you add a wife to the equation, and skyrockets for every school-age child.

These jobs make sense mainly for single males with modest needs and expectations and no bad habits. If that describes you, go for it. I would forget about it if you have school age children. It would be A LOT cheaper to keep the wife and kids at home in India and come on your own, and a lot more comfortable for everyone.
