Default BetUS reportedly hiring clerks for new Panama office

BetUS (SBR rating D+) reportedly hiring clerks for new Panama office. BetUS is said to be operating under the name BLUM Management Services which is located in Via Espaņa in the Boston Building. BLUM Mgt. is hiring casino and wagering clerks for $3.50 per hour. It remains unclear if the Panamanian government will allow BetUS to build its business there or if BetUS is operating under the license of an established online casino. BetUS has already moved its servers to Panama. Clerks form BetUS' Canada office have recently cited an office move as reason for withdrawal delays.

This could be a rough ride. The few books in Panama are trying to keep out the books that could bring them trouble and BetUS could certainly bring them plenty.

We are researching in what capacity they are in Panama. There are some casinos that have been there for a while that they could be linking up with. Their neighbor is Crown Casino.

$3.50 is pretty good in Panama. They are targeting experienced wagering clerks. 5 is about right for CR.

For those of us awaiting payments from Betus, can the details of the company's operation please be censored. It one thing to say they're hiring, but why what building they're in???

why they paid Panamanians less money that CR people, they do a great work better that them. They have to increase the salary Panama is more expensive than Costa Rica, the living expectation is higher on Panama.

Why you say that BetUs could bring problems to the others books in Panama the other already have they own problems, research and you could fine that is true, they spend a lot of cash to improve they image with the customers but the treatments with his employees is unfair.

That would be a good reason why you get paid $3.50 an hour.

Are you at the Panama office?

That last part ... at least to me ... makes no sense. Please describe what this means.
