Alle reden über Karenztage. Noch schlimmer finde ich die Tatsache, dass Arbeitsverträge künftig 4 Jahre (!) befristet werden können, bevor es die Möglichkeit eines Festvertrages gibt. 4 Jahre keine Planungssicherheit, keine Kredite, Probleme bei der Urlaubsplanung, Umzug usw!

As an employee in Germany who would be affected by this, I am so happy that this is happening and that my employer can fire me at-will. This feels like the start of a flywheel. 1. I do think €180,000 is too high a number as threshold. It should be €100,000. This will allow FAANG for eg: to hire more freely in Germany [which they don't today partly because it's super hard to fire people]. This in turn will rise all boats and increase competition for talent at the 100-160k levels. It'll also help startups. [I guess they will get here - 180k is just a starting point]. 2. I think this needs to be coupled with weakening the Betriebsrat (Works Council) and Collective Bargaining Agreements - they are IMO the bane of German industry. Will be a tougher sell given how entrenched they are, but hopefully to incentivize FAANG-type employers, we defang these [lol] 3. This should ideally be coupled with a merit-based immigration stance (eg: the Danish / Dutch type tax rebates etc.] so that exceptionally skilled people consider Europe a viable destination (given how awesome Blue Card is vis-a-vis the H1B nightmare) Merz absolutely lacks charisma but dude knows how economics works, lol.
