What do tech companies in Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam actually pay?

We separate the parts of a package

Offers in the Kingdom are commonly quoted as a base salary plus allowances, so a base-only number understates what someone actually receives. Each report here records base pay, housing allowance and transport allowance separately, along with any thirteenth-month payment, annual bonus, equity and signing bonus, and combines them into an annualized total you can compare across employers.

Reports also record whether the contributor is a Saudi national or an expatriate, because packages for the two are often structured differently, and because a salary dataset that could not tell them apart would mislead both.

What you can and cannot see

Pay is shown only in fixed bands on monthly total compensation, never as exact figures. One report produces the same band shape as twenty, so no individual's package can be identified from this site. A dataset people trust with their own numbers has to protect them.

The full dataset sits behind submit-to-unlock: share your own salary once, and when it is approved you see everything for twelve months.

Why contribute

There is no free, credible, riyal-denominated salary dataset for Saudi technology roles broken down by company and seniority. The numbers that dominate search results are unverified estimates. Every report added here, including yours, is what replaces them.
