They still exist, the bright spots. Berlin’s economic performance has increased more than the national average in the current year. A great comeback after the Corona crisis.
Thousands of jobs are not being processed in Marienfelde. What many feared. Instead, Mercedes-Benz invests in people and new developments for plants all over the world.
That definitely has something to do with the guts of Berliners. “You start, before you are ready” – in other words, jump in at the deep end. This is exactly what the head of production at Mercedes-Benz, who has lived in China and the USA, loves about his people in Marienfelde. That sounds good, gives us all courage.
