Problem: In e.g. Germany you need these papers to get access to some jobs, without you won't get them or nearly only 1% will have chance to get it.

There's no job guarantee with it, but still...

Are you talking about MBAs or M.A./M.Sc. degrees in related fields? Personally, I do not even consider MBAs to be much of "a thing" in Germany. Yes, there are some prestigious universities offering them (St. Gallen comes to mind) but many people still have not moved on to the Bologna System from the good old "Diplombetriebswirt" in their hearts, let alone MBAs.

Especially Bachelor.

In my company we see Bachelors on the same level as people with just a "Ausbildung" in computer science. I also don't have a MBA or Bachelors and still got some job offers. It's just what you do. Actually in germany you can get a job really fast if you are into Scala / Java. Actually it won't make you rich, but it's good work and in Berlin there are a lot of companies searching for Scala Developers.

Just a remark: St. Gallen is in Switzerland, not in Germany

You don't. At least not by every job. It's more like 99% could get a job without a MBA. If everybody will be a master, everybody will also want to get a higher grade in his job, which couldn't work, so you need normal developers as well.

The only thing you will get a lot less than a MBA. When you would get the job of a MBA you will mostly get the same money he will get even when you have 5 years of experience.
