      Lack of strategy, leadership skills and knowledge about Brazilian market

      Pros

      If you can work in some projects without any influence of the local board you can get some good results.

      Cons

      There is no competence to delivery what is sold. Micromanage. The actual Brazilian board is more interested in know about what the employees do than in help their team to reach its goals. Really old culture based on conflict and internal competition. There is no strategy and knowledge about Brazilian market.

      No structure, no consistency, success is based on luck. I would not recommend.

      Pros

      Ability to work remote depending on position

      Cons

      Non-existent management and guidance. Same role in different region has different expectations. Performance metrics, for some positions, include a factor that is completely based on luck. This completely skews the opportunity for meeting your numbers compared to your peers. Managers, who you don't report to, can influence how your performance is viewed even though you do not report to them nor do they ever speak to you. Lastly, benefits costs increased considerably after acquisition. No attractive benefits with this company, everything from vacation to health benefits.

      Pros

      If you didnt want to take chances and continue to use old technology fax, telex this is the place to go

      Cons

      The fax messaging business is dwindling - time to invent something new. But there is no innovation and just putting lipstick on a pig to make it look new.
