Love / Polish Farm Women [34]


I let my wife read this, and she thinks you are one very sad obsessed person.


What a lovely compliment for that lady in question. It looks like buying something of a shelf in Media Markt.

You mean the one who was considering mail-order Ukrainian women?


Please define?

There we go again... What is your obsession with going out for a beer?


Why is that? Because he met a real-life woman?
In which world are you living?

Yes PIS did not mind to be in a coalition with such people :)

I always liked Szymon Majewski Show, until the last two seasons when it somehow lost its sharpness.
I will never forget the impersonation of that Samoobrona woman (forgot her name). Anyway Szymon as a person is also quite pleasant.

I always thought Szymon Majewski had much better taste than Kuba Wojewódzki who for me is an arrogant ***.

Work / Dutch speaker (native) experienced in Finance: job opportunities in Poland [63]

These are people who live in Belgium for example, but work on weekdays in Poland, and go home back to Belgium on Friday evening. And Monday morning (or Sunday evening) back to Poland.

Work / Dutch speaker (native) experienced in Finance: job opportunities in Poland [63]

Honestly, I have never heard of any Belgian moving to Poland to make an improvement on their career.
In this case you should be sent as an expat by a Belgian company, or be able to join the Mon-Fri crowd.

Work / Dutch speaker (native) experienced in Finance: job opportunities in Poland [63]


I know quite a lot of foreigners who started their career in Poland with Accenture. Staid 1-2 years there and they all said it was a good launching pad to something else.. Supposed to be a very lively multinational group with lots of young employees and should be not that bad.

Work / Dutch speaker (native) experienced in Finance: job opportunities in Poland [63]


Yes, but I have heard a few of them talking, and I was not very impressed with their Dutch. Still for some jobs, native speakers are preferred.

Work / Dutch speaker (native) experienced in Finance: job opportunities in Poland [63]

That is because quite a lot of Flemish / Dutch native speakers emigrate to Poland because of their partner, start to look for a job here, are prepared to put up with lower salaries and then armed with experience and local knowledge & language move on to something better. I am speaking from experience :)

Infosys in £ódż, which employs lots of native speakers, pays 3000-3500 net + bonus.

You could try your with Shell in Kraków, who have their European Coordination Centre based there.

It is true that every year Polish students finish their studies Dutch. But sometimes companies require native speakers.
But without knowledge of Polish and no job experience in Poland...

This is advice from a fellow Fleming.

Or this site:
But most jobs here are BPO jobs who will fall in the income range described by Delph. I would not count on much more as 3000 PLN net

Siemens-Nixdorf also recruits regularly for their European Coordination Centre in Warsaw. "Regularly" means that you see the same jobs reappearing again.
That is because they pay funny money, while requiring native speakers.
Then they do not find a native speaker working for peanuts and they have to employ a spotty youth straight from Warsaw Uni. And stay just long enough to find a decent job.

Travel / Just visited Poland - here is my random rant [154]


Although for example in the local ZUS office here in Warsaw-Bielany they are always helpful. Last month I made a mistake with in my monthly declaration, and the lady in question was really helpful to sort things out.

Life / Expat, immigrant, foreigner. Not all foreigners in Poland are expats. [84]

Here in Poland I would think "Warsaw Insider" is a typical expat publication. Expats here in Poland are on a temporary basis, at least the ones I know.

Food / Poland known for cheap food [7]

In Belgium food for sure is much more expensive as here in Warsaw. Here in Wolumen I buy strawberries at 5 PLN/kg. Back home they cost twice that.

Cherries at 6 PLN/kg. Back home three times as much.

Life / Expat, immigrant, foreigner. Not all foreigners in Poland are expats. [84]

Expats are here for a limited time, are sent here by a foreign company. The ones I know are in Warsaw from Monday morning until Friday afternoon and their families stay at home. Their number is dwindling because they are expensive to maintain. They have no connection with the country they are working in...Immigrants are here to stay, at least until their pension....

Life / Expat, immigrant, foreigner. Not all foreigners in Poland are expats. [84]

For me an expat is also someone who is sent by his company overseas for a defined span of time. I consider myself an immigrant.

UK, Ireland / Western Europe is not Paradise after all (Polish doctors in the UK more popular) [75]

I can testify to Medicover waiting times. They are getting worse all the time. I heard this is because they are taking on too many new customers (mainly through contracts with companies) and do not have the staff to handle that inflow.

So your biggest adventure was to sit on hard wooden chair and empty your pockets, knowing that you had a foreign passport. How stressful.

Study / Vistula University in Poland. Any experience? Any student? [57]

It has to very clear that most of these private schools thrive on "students" of non-European origin, who think this is a cheap ticket into the EU / Schengen. How often we do not seethe question coupled with a request for entrance visa/work visa....etc...

Whereas where they come from there are also universities. I wonder who is exploiting whom here.

Pure Hitler-Jugend tactics, and what is more scary, they occur more and more in this country.
Why is never anybody interrupting a speech by a smolenkist or mr maybach?
