That's still not good enough as compared to Zurich or Amsterdam. Or many other cities. Why stop at tech. Many Romanians and other poor EU immigrants move across Europe for all kind of jobs. I don't think you have thought this through and not realizing or outright ignoring xenophobia in your arguments.

Yeah, Zurich or Amsterdam pay more but have you thought about comparing the local taxes and COL before you made the argument? Insert another coin and try again.

€2k NET monthly in Poland or Romania as a new grad means you can buy a house immediately. How many houses can one newgrad buy in Zurich or Amsterdam?

And? What's wrong with that? It's part and parcel of EU membership. Western companies can also come to the East and straight up exploit the population.

Don't like it? Vote to leave the EU?
