Work / What you do not know about work & life in Poland. [7]

hi,

I have an offer from Poznan. I am Indian and now after reading your post I am giving it another thought about going to Poland. I thought it's a cheaper country as compared to other countries and so decided to go. however, salary is also less as compared other country.

my question is, how difficult it is to move to Germany or Netherland from Poland? This would be my second option if things doesn't work out in Poland and I find it racist.

Merged: Racism in Poland

hi Guys,

I am Indian and planning to move to Poland and I am worried about racism.

after I got the offer I was reading on multiple forums and I found the polish people are racist to different color people. is it really true? racism is every, what matters is how much?

There are some illiterate, old people everywhere who is racist to outsiders. I would like to know the amount of these people in Poland. I don't want to face racism comment every day at work or at market place.

certainly i would not like if in public area people don't want to seat near me or don't want to serve a food.

Thanks for the information. This is what I was looking for. And from this thread I came to know if Polish people are not racist they have very high esteem. I mean see people fighting over this thread, really stupid.

And yes, I can understand that as polish homogenous, being from a totally different race and religion would not be comfortable for others.
We have racism here in India as well, but mostly with illiterate and old people. people who are educated, has come over it.

Would like to know what is the current situation in Poland. Has it been any major incident ?
