    Warum sagen deutsche Nachrichtensender das, während 99 % der Leute hier das Gegenteil sagen? Warum stimmen die Meinungen von Kanälen und Personen nicht überein?


    Habe das Gleiche vor ein paar Tagen auch auf Taggeschau gelesen.

      The missing word is ‚cheap‘.

      Comparable story as in many countries (in the Netherlands its comparable); they want cheap people, ideally pay them an unlivable wage and have them fully depend on the employer so they are trapped.

      To illustrate how it works in the Netherlands (as we drunk even more of the ‚free market‘ kool-aid as types like Friedrich Merz did); 30% income tax breaks on immigrants hired from abroad and paid over 50k/year so they can aggressively undercut wages and apply wage suppression on the locals. Lower paid labour comes with ‚housing‘ (read a bed in a slum for 700 euros a month), as there is a delebitately caused housing ‚crisis‘ those people can’t move neither switch employers as they’ll be kicked out straight away.

      They don’t want workers, they want slaves.

      IT specialists != CS juniors

      Also yes, plenty of fields of work who hire people if they can get hold of them (because they cannot find them).

      High skilled workers don’t want to, and shouldn’t, work for peanuts.

      Because news like to bend the reality a bit,

      there is a shortage in some work areas, mainly healthcare, elderly care and in some trade skill jobs.

      But IT definitely doesn’t have a shortage.

      Companies usualy like to scream that there is a worker shortage but the only real shortage they see is a shortage in cheap wage slaves they can exploit.

      So while the reality is that there is some shortage, the news outlets just decide to listen to the big corporations which say shit like that.

      My company is firing people to outsource their jobs to cheap non european countries.

      Unless the government does something to protect the local workforce, the money will slowly drain out of the country.

      They are not missing skilled workers, they are missing cheap skilled workers.

      Because of the disparity between skills and demand, many people are struggling to find jobs, and companies are struggling to find people with certain skills. E.g. there is a huge gap in all medical areas, and in IT, some skills are quite difficult to find because it’s not just about getting training but also having actual experience in the field.

      Because the german goverment is slow as fuck. They just try, to fix a 2020 problem in 2026. Around 2028-2029, they will understand that there is no more demand in IT people and in 2030 they will stop talking about the shortage.

    8. YardLimp on

      Because Germany is missing skilled workers with German language skills and recognized training and education that are willing to work in certain areas.

      There is a shortage of skilled workers, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to enter the labor market as a foreigner.
      The bureaucracy behind this is one of the reasons of the shortage.

    9. Flamebeard_0815 on

      Well, one of the problems is: While we might have the amount of skilled workers on paper, most of them aren’t willing to relocate to where skilled work is to be utilized. Those areas are at times less desirable to live in for a variety of reasons, some of them being poor infrastucture, lower wages and/or lower living standards due to a lack of investments in property.

      For companies, it’s cheaper to demand foreign talent that will work for less, as the alternative would be paying German qualified personnel a premium on top of their salary to relocate.

      CEOs need cheap laborers as competitors at the workforce market to dump wages for the natives who want fair shares and higher wages. Additionally, politicians need migration to avoid having to deal with the highly emotional topic of family. The modern migration benefits the rich and powerful, the rest of us suffers from it.

      They wanted to say slaves from 3rd world countries that is what they wanna imply there lol

    12. DocSternau on

      The news outlet is correct.

      But hiring those professionals is also a question of money.

    13. Prinzmegaherz on

      We have three million unemployed people in Germany, yet the government and industry claim there‘s a worker shortage so people should work longer hours. Go figure

    14. iTmkoeln on

      They want the 19 year old with 20 years of work experience that of course has a masters degree that works for minimum wage.

      Or people that are okay with bait and switches.

      Annekdote like a year ago I had an interview for a Level 2 IT Support role : 80% Homeoffice – 20 % Office (way to the office from my home would have been 20km so basically on the other side of Hamburg) – 50-85k gross / year

      Well it turns out they wanted a Level 1 – Level 2 and Level 3 Support, that is willing to do on call support 4-5 times a year on weekends (because we are on tradeshows like 4-5 times per year), helps with hiring as a temporal team lead in IT and is okay with 50.

      And yeah about that Homeoffice.

      We want you 4 times a week in office but we allow up to 4 days per month home office (with the caveat that we don’t want home office on mondays, fridays, tuesdays or wednesdays. And if either tuesday or thursday is a public holiday no homeoffice on wednesday either.).

      I demanded 55 for the first year and got told I was way too expensive and they found someone cheaper… Given that offer turned up 6 times between indeed, workwise, stepstone and workwise since then like every quarter the cheaper option probably did not work out.

    15. Competitive-Leg-962 on

      Skill means many years or decades of experience. The ones complaining are fresh graduates or fairly junior people, or skilled experienced once who got laid off in large corporates with 180k annual income who can’t find anything in the same range anymore.

    16. bier_getRunken on

      It’s not about “different opinions”. On Reddit you see the side of workers not finding a job, while on the news you read about enterprises not finding workers. It’s happening both.

    18. Wrestler7777777 on

      No, Germany is not lacking skilled workers. Germany is lacking skilled workers that are willing to work for a salary of an unskilled worker and who also want to do the work of an entire team by themselves.

    19. NoSoundNoFury on

      There’s a shortage of people willing to do work that is considered unattractive:

      – Lots of late shifts or night shifts;

      – Located in rural areas;

      – Low salary (especially when combined with required certification);

      – Stressful people jobs like nursing or being a kindergarden or elementary school teacher;

      – Jobs where you have career alternatives with higher salaries on similar qualifications, like being a STEM teacher at school.

      „shortage of workers“ in Germany is always code for „We do not like the wages we have to pay people and would like more applicants, so we can lower wages.“

    21. D-ReX24 on

      And now Europe made a deal with India for easy work access… Let’s see how this will impact our job pool😅

    22. JoMaster68 on

      I generally assume this is just ragebait, no one in their right mind can possibly claim that there is a shortage of it workers in germany

    23. noobstaah on

      yeah thats bullshit. It should read „Germany is facing massice shortage of skilled workers, from nurses to IT specialists, who have 10+ years of work experience and are willing to work for ~40k/year in cities like Munich/Berlin … „

    24. Prestigious_Rub_831 on

      Their is no worker shortage but a shortage of slaves.
      Companys dont want to pay a living wage and germans dont want foreinger labour because it pushes down the wages. Good example are truckdrivers the salary went down so much compared to the cost of living its crazy.
      Thats goes for most jobs where good german is not needed.

    25. sfw_throwaway_7 on

      Germany is facing a massive shortage of CHEAP skilled workers. 

      The headlines don’t tell the fact that German companies are not willing to pay a fair wage. 

    26. RealLeif on

      They have the shortage, cause they dont want to pay the trained people what they are worth. Simple as that. With a Masters Degree i now look at the salary that Bachelors Degree wouldnt even look at 5 years ago.
