Hey guys, I currently am on the verge of finishing my masters in chemistry in Germany. I am originally from India and don’t want to go back. Although Germany is a seemingly great country to live, unfortunately, for me, it never suited me. I have never been so mentally depressed and unmotivated ever in my life (despite previously having a hard life). I think it’s the loneliness and how you’re just never accepted. I cannot think of living here long term. I have nothing against Germany so I would like to not have comments ‘defending’ my stance of living in Germany. I have made up my mind and I just cannot live such a life. I want to ask which country would be great for me. I have a background in chemistry so would be great to have a country that has opportunities for that. That’s the most important. Preferably an English speaking country. Safe for women. Good work life balance. Acceptance of expats(of course I’m not delusional but at least to an extent).
She did mention work life balance as a point to consider though
You have any source saying that work life balance for Singapore is bad? (serious, no hate/bad vibes). My friend moved there as software engineer from Germany and is very happy
I guess it depends on the exact company (whether it’s local or foreign) but Singapore work culture in general is infamous. You can look at local child care center opening hours (7am-7pm plus Saturday morning) as a symptom of that.
Just look at the Singapore subreddit
