They are usually really good, but germany also pushed a lot for more students in universities over the decades.

Most trades people I met in DACH region were either Turkish, ex-Yugo, or Eastern European immigrants.

I rarely saw a native working at trades. They usually own or run the business but don't seem to have a stereotype of treating their employees well.

At least where I live that has not been the case, at least until a while ago. I would guess the ratio is higher than in office jobs, but not like you make it sound. Might be a bit dependent on city vs rural as well.
