Hi everyone! I represent Mars Co. in Ukraine. My task is keeping in touch with Ukrainian distributors and control delivery and earnings. However during Maidan events we had lost connection with our Kiev office. When they contacted us again it occurred that there new allowances for some officials appeared. So I went there myself. That is total blue murder. To start with that those Ukrainian office managers hired some poor people unofficially and paid them hryvnia 2500 instead of official 7000 set by the Company. Also no one was aware about those new 'fiscal charges'. After a brief investigation I just learnt that no Ukrainian fiscal facility ever got those funds. At the stage very close to answer of money disappearing secret, mysterious calls and intimidations started. I was given to understand the Company shouldn't interest with such 'small details' if it wants to act in Ukraine on old terms and without any accidents. Now there is a question if the Company should continue its activity on Ukrainian territory. I didn't find neither honesty nor transparency of local distributors. No law defends your investments. Meanwhile you unwittingly become oppressor for local employees and get mixed into Ukrainian bribery system. Never ever do business in Ukraine!
