News & Notices: GambleJoe: Information about new responsibilities

Dear Community,

we don't want to make a big issue out of it, but just want to inform you that our moderator Sabine has decided to quit her job at GambleJoe for private reasons (which we don't know ourselves). The resignation came short and sweet at the beginning of October.
There will probably not be a farewell from the forum, since she has already returned her computer early and can no longer be reached for us on business.
We assume that she no longer enjoyed her daily work in the forum and that she is therefore probably looking for a new job.

As some of you may already know, our moderator Caro has also changed and moved back to Germany after almost 10 years in Malta
has reoriented herself professionally. In case some speculate, the two resignations have nothing to do with each other, but just happen to fall on the same period.

This reduces the forum team from previously 4 colleagues to now only 2 people, namely Julian and Andre.
But also Counter and I are there to take care of the portal.

In the near future we will also advertise a new job (we need people who are willing to live in Malta) and look for reinforcements.

Until then Julian will take care of the casino complaints, so you now have a new contact person here.

Kind regards
Matthias

P.S. We have noticed that hardly anyone registers with the casinos via our reflinks.
It would be great if you could make sure to give something back to GambleJoe with a click before signing up at the next new providers

As long as Andre is still there, there's no problem. Then he works 30 hours a day instead of 27

Why is a residence in Malta mandatory?

This post has been translated automatically

B****3
The important thing is that someone comes along who is nearly as competent as Caro was!

That would be my wish for the future of Gamblejoe and its members!

There are several reasons - I'll write down a few, the order says nothing about the importance.


- "Value added" has to be in Malta so that we don't have problems with the German tax office. If too many people were employed in Germany, it could be assumed that we only registered the company abroad for tax reasons and that the operation of the portal is actually done from Germany. The more people are employed in Malta, the higher the verifiable substance of the Malta company.
- We are a Maltese company and of course we have Maltese employment contracts. The easiest way to conclude them is with employees who have a Maltese ID card. In Malta, the law states that the employer only pays sick pay for 10 days per year. After that, the health Insurance company takes over the payment of wages. If an employee is working abroad (e.g. in Germany) and becomes ill, the employee will of course go to the doctor in Germany. A German certificate is not sufficient for the Maltese health insurance, so that the employee would have to accept loss of wages. Therefore - if you are sick, you go to the doctor in Malta and everything is fine.
- The salary level in Malta is higher - you have less social security contributions and therefore more net to live on. You can check this on MaltaSalary.com (enter gross salary from DE and you will see how much more net you have).
- The cooperation and also the cohesion and understanding between colleagues who live in the same country we feel as higher, because here in Malta you have other problems than if you would live in Germany. Every country has its advantages and disadvantages and the social togetherness is easier by working in Malta.
- If you move to Malta, you show that your job is really important to you - I think that is also really important for working in such a small team and a clear sign that you mean business. The training of an employee is very time-consuming for us, because each of us is an all-rounder who has to be very familiar with "cropping pictures", "cropping videos", HTML, forum support, spelling, the iGaming industry and the internet in general.
If we invest the time and the colleague leaves, it's a loss for us and it costs power.
- In general, managing the company is easier when everyone is employed in Malta. "Abroad", in this case Germany, means more bureaucracy, which we want to avoid. And if someone becomes self-employed and would work for us from Germany, then the tax office could possibly even assume bogus self-employment and also not everyone is born to register a business and make regular tax returns.

I hope that answers your question in sufficient form
Best regards
Matthias

Yes


I was not aware that there is so much bureaucracy behind it.

I think that the housing obligation in Malta deters some people, even if the job may be good (better than 8 hours in the warehouse or supermarket). The housing obligation w would be a knockout criterion for me personally.

Don't you have a period of notice in Malta? In DE this is 4 weeks to prevent exactly these scenarios.

The job is safe mega cool but move to Malta for a job is not only a question of wanting you must also be able to give up both financially and friends family and life here

Yes, I am also working in support and can tell you that it is pleasant. In addition, I have a home office, which makes things even more chill than usual for me.

Exactly, the costs also play a role: moving, etc. also costs a lot (you can also see this with Youtubers who have emigrated to Malta). Then there's all the bureaucracy and as you say, giving up everything in DE. Very difficult, especially if you do not have your own home. Anyone who has been house hunting the last few years knows how hard and expensive that is right now. I pay for a warm 70m² not even 650€ and that pay some for ne 2 room apartment.. cold.


To GJ: You don't have to answer this, but do you offer support? So in the search for an apartment, documents, etc? I do not want to apply, but find it interesting to know how something like this can happen.

So I can be completely wrong but I think I even read something from a team member where it was said they would help there help can be anything at first must not always be about money

But can also be it was at another Malta thing and I'm completely wrong here

I would do the job immediately work eh currently on my own account and there are days that are so boring (mostly after the completion of a project) I squat times good 10 hours there and the awesome thing in the day was the walk to make coffee I would not be tied to a place because everything happens online but would not have the heart to give up my life here even if one DE very often annoying

I can only say that I was helped a lot when I moved to Malta. And it is really not as bureaucratic as you think, because Malta is also in the EU. In addition, all apartments here are furnished, so the move is not difficult.

I find it a real pity that this happens within such a short time that both women in the team leave the same.
I really hope that the interviews will take care that a female view on and into the forum will be maintained
