Practical advice for the OP.
If you can choose location, and want to maximise salary retention, Zurich is preferable.
Other factors to consider are language skills (do you speak German or French).
Lifestyle is a big selling point for Switzerland: COVID may put a dampener on some ski activities this winter.
Geneva is a manageable commute from France, where accommodation is much cheaper. For example, Annecy-Geneva Airport in 1 hour.
1000CHF would offer a comparable lifestyle to £600 in London. As other posters have said, you may expect to top out around 1200, but there is no harm asking for more.
