I've actually interviewed with German companies, and one of the tricky bits is compensation. They only way things would make something like sense financially is if I keep my US house and rent it out at about twice my mortgage expense.
- poulsbohemian 4y agoI know what you are saying, but personally I've kinda reached a point where I would trade compensation for quality of life. I'm not convinced the quality of life in the US overall (despite there theoretically being more money to be made) is the better tradeoff. I think in terms of health care, the social safety net, transportation, etc, IE: the physical and social infrastructure.
- subpixel 4y ago100% agree and if I was a little ahead in the money game instead of rather behind (for reasons I can't blame on living in the US) I'd accept a 40% salary cut to live where I lived as a kid in Germany - 45m outside of a city, with rock-solid bus + train access and a thriving Jugendverein.
