[Interview] I am working in the Berlin tech scene. (1) Shortcut

There are parts of the European company culture we know that are more illusionary than we think, but is there a reason why you still recommend employment at European companies?

Yang Hyo-na (hereinafter referred to as ‘Hyo’): I feel like the company system keeps my life more stable than in Korea. For example, our company has a diversity team, a sustainability team, and a parents support team. I feel like the company is helping me achieve a good work-life balance. Each team has a slack channel, so you can communicate and receive support about difficulties at any time.

When looking into the Berlin startup scene, something interesting stands out. The point is that any well-known startup always has Koreans. In Germany, in small and large companies, there are relatively more opportunities for people who have studied in a German-speaking country, have professional skills in the field, or speak German perfectly. However, the language barrier in German itself is quite high, and the business culture of the German cultural sphere is quite different from that of Korea, so there are barriers for ordinary Koreans to get jobs at ordinary German companies.
