Definitely not the ceiling. I've been working here for five years and always earned more. Also if you're married they'll sum you and your partner's income and lower your taxes if your partner earns less. Good way to study or do non-paid work while the other earns for both of you.
Berlin is very liberal and open-minded, but learning Deutsch is a must...
Another thing that scares me away from west Europe in general - such low percentage of people owning houses/lands... Even in Berlin, most people with their families spend whole their life in apartments (not to mention a house with a backyard) that do not belong to them...
