My Romanian mate who has a hotel says they think Brexit is great and are hoping that some Romanian hotel workers are coming back. They need trained staff, even better if they speak other languages. His problem has been getting trained staff and there is a general lack of young people to help the economy.
He reckons their economy is growing too slowly because of this.
Sorry for mentioning my Romanian mate.
Got something similar here. Currently living about 100 metres from a famous cakeshop/bakery in Budapest that is closing as it can't get "patissiers" or specialist bakers as they are all in Germany working in lower skilled catering jobs on far more money.
Spoke with the owner. business been in his family for over 150 years but just can't get the skilled labour.
poland offering all sorts of incentives to bring their better skilled labour back from UK.
Hungarian economy being held back by "brain drain" to Germany in particular. I co-own a small hotel in eastern Hungary. Village population around 3500 and i know of at least 60 people (some whole families) from that one village that are now living in North of Scotland primarily in hotel/restaurant trade. We needed a new Head Chef and struggled to find a "young" one as they are all in the EU and we can't compete with the comparative financial packages. We started up a football team and couldn't get any players between the ages of 21 and 35 as so many young men working away in EU.
