Hi,
I am possibly going to move to Brussels with my company later this year but would like to know if there are specific things i should ask for or make sure are included as part of a salary package. The package will include medical insurance, pension, company car but I would like to know if there are any specifics to ask for or avoid.

I understand that some options are better than others because of the high taxes so days extra days off is worth more than overtime or bonus payments as both are taxed at high rate.

Any help and advice on this and on anything related to moving to Brussels will be greatly apreciated. many thanks.
