As far as I know, the Blue card income requirement is the same across the EU, and also quite a bit higher than the HSV income requirement in the Netherlands. If you have a choice, the Blue card is better as it gives more mobility and more time to find a new job if you get fired (in general, I think it's the same for the first 6 months).

It does have an income requirement. In Germany, it’s around 50k Euros per year, and many companies just pay the bare minimum.
That said, I was fairly lucky and found something that isn’t terrible, so I moved. Other than the language barrier, I don’t have many complaints. I’ve heard the language situation is better in the Netherlands than in Germany.
