A significant number of immigrants in Germany are considering leaving the country due to experiences of disillusionment and discrimination. A recent study indicates that one in four immigrants may leave, with three percent already planning to do so. Reader testimonies reveal that many face escalating racism and discrimination, particularly in workplaces, leading to a feeling of exclusion and frustration. As comments from various immigrants illustrate, these experiences contribute to a broader belief that integration is often hindered by societal norms of intolerance and inequality.
"Germany is a country where racism and discrimination is normalized in society," said Rishabh Singh in Berlin, a view shared by many of our respondents.
Elvis, who has lived and worked in Germany for years, described "blatant double standards in the working environment".
R Palany, a British national in Munich, described very similar experiences, saying "In the workplace, foreigners are tolerated at best and only up to mid-level positions."
