Germany has a substantial labor shortage in practically all departments except low/unskilled labor. Unemployment hovers around 5% and falling.

There are regional differences, but all in all, the threat of “I’ll replace you with a cheaper immigration” is bogus, because there’s not even enough qualified immigrants to fill the open positions, let alone replace anyone with.

The Germans I met were in America so likely a biased sample, but it was more than one and they didn’t know each other.

In addition I got the threat of being replace with a cheaper immigrant in the US even though I was the immigrant, but I worked in applied research which is generally paid much more than other programmers so more likely to encounter the whole why are we paying you so much sentiment.
