IT specialists who are considering leaving Berlin, where would you go, and why?
With the current political and economic situation in Germany, I’ve been wondering whether other people working in IT are also considering moving away from Berlin or Germany altogether.
If you’re thinking about relocating, or have already done so, I’d love to hear which cities or countries you’re considering and what’s influencing your decision.
I’m particularly interested in:
Career opportunities: job market, salaries, and opportunities for growth in IT.
Quality of life: safety, housing, healthcare, infrastructure, and overall lifestyle.
Financial perspective: net salaries relative to the cost of living and taxes.
Long-term outlook: political and economic stability, and whether you see yourself settling there for the next 5–10 years.
Have you considered places like London, Amsterdam, Zurich, Copenhagen, or perhaps cities in Spain or Portugal? Or do you think Berlin is still a good place to stay despite the current challenges?
I’m not necessarily looking for a perfect city,
just interested in hearing real experiences and how people are weighing the trade-offs.
