That’s true for many people, and there are several reasons why Europe-based jobs might seem more attractive to Indians than jobs in India:

  1. Higher Salaries: Even after adjusting for the cost of living, many European countries offer significantly higher salaries for skilled professionals.
  2. Work-Life Balance: Europe generally emphasizes a better work-life balance, with shorter work weeks, more paid vacation, and stronger labor rights.
  3. Social Security & Healthcare: European countries often provide strong social safety nets, including universal healthcare, unemployment benefits, and pensions.
  4. Quality of Life: Clean environments, efficient public transportation, and safety can make European countries more appealing.
  5. Career Opportunities: In some industries (like IT, engineering, and research), Europe might offer more advanced projects or global exposure.
  6. Path to Residency: Countries like Germany and the Netherlands have relatively clear paths from skilled work visas to permanent residency or even citizenship.
