Pay question for current CX SO's
I am looking for information on the take home monthly pay for a CX SO. The pay stated on the CX website is around 45k HKD per month. The tax is stated to be 12-15%. Am I correct in thinking that at the end of the month I will take home between 38250-39600 HKD? Why is it around 45k a month? Is there different rates for different experience on joining? Are there any little surprises I should know about that catch people out? Pollution levy or some other silly thing?
On the subject of money I would also like to know roughly how much you would be paid per month in per diems for layovers. I know that this shouldn't be taken into account when budgeting but I really would like to know what you could expect.
Cheers
