Thoughts on moving to Germany

I have over 7 years of experience in social and content marketing. At this point in my journey I'm looking at a transition in my role and industry.

I have been considering doing an MBA. While doing it in India is still an option, Germany looks like a realistic option as well.

I want to know from people who have had 1st hand experience in studying + working in Germany and how your experience and process was.

All ears!

70-80k Euro is considered a decent salary there so after all the deductions and expense you won't be able to save much. It's not like US. Don't go to EU just for that. What it lacks in salary it compensates for that by offering far better things

Try for 'erasmus mundus' an all expenses paid holiday trip for 2-4 europian nations + 1000 euro stipend. Plus they teach you MBA or Master maybe.

Europe is good. Lots of people. Language is not big issue in Berlin. Once in you can move to other countries in Europe too

Have two folks as data scientist in Germany for Last 4 years

Language barrier

it's inevitable for language to be a barrier in a new place, so it's fine with me
