Germany also has mostly 6 months probation.

A probationary period is not only beneficial for the employer, but also for you (which many forget): If you don't like the job after a few weeks, you can quit short-term (as for example in Germany within 2 weeks or even less) and just leave and start in another company.

Thanks a lot for the advice. I am only 4 years into my career and my last employer didn't have any such clause. Hence my indecision.
