I got an offer from an AI startup in Montreal. The work they do is very very interesting and perfectly aligns with my research interest. Their compensation is definitely lower than amazon but their work is very interesting . Their base pay per annum is 100k cad . Is this a good pay in Montreal?
What is the company?
$100k CAD in Montreal goes a long way. i think you can rent 1 bedroom for $1200 or so. Expect to pay 45% tax.
You can rent one bedrooms for Lower actually and the average tax rate is not 45% .Thats the marginal tax rate
Anything less than 1000$ rent will give you a noisy apartment that Montréal is infamous for.
Your rent in Montreal will be lower than 700 cad
depends on your years of experience
My rent is $350 for a private room in a 2 bedroom apartment. I used to pay 715-820 CAD in various Airbnb’s in downtown and suburbs. So 1200 is a very high estimate.
Depends on your YoE. It can be great or just average
Very good
