Pros

You can learn a ton of things that are IT related.

People are serious about their jobs.

Cons

Management persecutes employees after "warm" discussions. I witnessed two employees giving up on the job because of that.

They lay you off for no reason at all, and they are very confused as far as second-line and first-line manager interactions.

Advice to Management

C-level should implement people management policies because it is very clear that persecution occurs within Brazil's Rational Support division. Because first-line managers have "positions of trust," the incidents are not properly investigated by second-line managers when a request for a layoff is given to them. They simply and pretty much sign it blindly.
