Not to sound too derogatory but this information is available on the Eurocontrol Website. It even mentions it in BIG RED WRITING !!! on the Vacancy section. It is located on the PDF document called our staff regulations ( General Conditions of Employment for Eurocontrol Maastricht ). The page number you are looking for is Page 58 in the document or Page 72 in the PDF file.
These figures are all NET (after tax) sums.

Now where you fit in to this equation ie. O4 or O3 is up to you and HR.
In my case I came to Eurocontrol with 8 years Radar experience and slotted into Grade O4 Step 5 ie. I got 1 step for every 2 years of experience.
Now dependant on your situation is what EXTRA allowances you get on top of this.
So lets say you have 8 years experience & are Married with 1 child.
Eurocontrol pays you around 270 euro per month as a Head of Household allowance ie. For the Mrs (so she tells me)
Eurocontrol will also pay you around 260 euro per month for EACH kiddie you have.
So in your case lets say basic salary is 4,882,52 +270+260 = 5412.52
But wait there's more. If you are NOT a Dutch National you are entitled to an Expatriation allowance of 16% of the above sum = 866.00
This gives you a sum of 6278.52 per month.
You are then get an ATC allowance = roughly 600 euro per month
This gives you a sum of 6878.52 per month.
Then once you start on Shift work you will get the Composite Shift work allowance or Flat rate shift allowance which is around 1100 per month.
There are OTHER benefits as well but you can do a bit of homework with HR about the Educational , Annual Travel expenses etc that they pay.
You will get this amount ie. 6878.52 from the day you start , I am not sure when the Flat rate shift allowance kicks in. There is however a nice little allowance that compensates for this known as the Daily Substance Allowance you can ask HR about this one. This will adequately cover the FRSA you dont get immediately.
Your progression through the steps is Bi-annually. Every 5 years you go up a Grade ie 04 to 05. You cannot decrease in salary.
The pension rights work out to 1.9% of basic salary for every year of service paid for by Eurocontrol. What does this mean. Well if you serve Eurocontrol for 25 years you will get almost 50% of you END BASIC salary as a Pension.So your assumption is correct.
The Training period will be between 12-16 months. More than likely on the latter end of the spectrum.
