Mr. Mathieu Gouanou stayed for three days only during his first visit in Sofia, Bulgaria, as being an official head of the Bulgarian Online Reputation Management company - BEYOO ONLINE.
While his stay was not long, the emotional density was high. The first still unemployed researcher & blogger got humiliated after she has been paid a significantly less commission, different from the one she had initially agreed upon. After asking what are the reasons for this change in her payment amount, BEYOO ONLINE's CEO - Mathieu Gouanou told her that she doesn't deserve more, for that she has taken a day off on official National holidays.* The rest of the team members (again, unemployed by BEYOO ONLINE, but working full-time for the company) have worked on the National holidays, but were not paid in accordance with the Bulgarian laws and regulations.
After her brief talk with BEYOO ONLINE's head of business - Mathieu Gouanou, the researcher & blogger went out of the improvised office upset.
This situation was the first serious sign that BEYOO ONLINE and Mathieu Gouanou are nothing, but trouble. Abusing the power that the missing labor contract is giving you over the people you work with, or the people that are getting a huge amount of work done, so you could make money for yourself, I should say, is a moral and federal crime. Apparently Mathieu Gouanou did not care about that, because that was just the beginning of a long, painful journey, full of disappointments.
*In Bulgaria, all national holidays are officially considered as a non-working days and are paid by the employer. If a person works on a national holiday, his employer should pay him double the amount he pays his employee on a normal working day.
