The best of both worlds is to have us funding and east european r&d. Considering how low taxes are for SE in many countries in the region pay can be high and talent can be attracted. The EU guarantees freedom of movement and as such workers can freely move west to east. The higher take home pay will be very attractive.

Can't speak for other eastern europen countries, but I'd not move back to the one I come from even for a bigger salary. I might have more money but I'd still have to live in worse conditions (infrastuture, public services, interactions with the state, etc...).

East EU countries are doing rather well. Lack of infrastructure is good for investment. A bit like gentrifying neighbourhoods where over time things improve and your investments grow with them.
