I'm currently in this position. I'm a non-PhD (junior) researcher for AI and ML in Germany. I would say at least 50% of my research coworkers "only" hold a Master's and no PhD. However, I'm currently a bit uncertain about the future of my work and career. I'm not sure whether I should strive to "more", i.e. pursuing a PhD, however, it sometimes feels like a dead end not to do.

Hey there, I’m in Germany too! What domain or area are you working in? Any chance that you have some experience with image segmentation?
I'm working mostly on HCI (human-computer-interaction) related topics and natural language, so no experience on image segmentation.
Thank you for answering. I‘m currently looking for something like a „sparring partner“ to talk about what they are doing as well as what I am doing since where I work no one does anything related to Deep Learning or Image Segmentation unfortunately. Wish you the best!
