Pros

They claim to be flexible.

Cons

Compensation is really poor compared to the amount of responsibility they concentrate on each employee. Management style is really poor. Team synergy is non-existent. They foster individualism and dirty competence among all the levels within the organization. They are proud of their "state-of-the art" technology development/applications, yet they hire people who are actual technology illiterates. Systems were full of glitches. A dozen servers were down every day. If you are thinking of becoming part of their IT team in Latin America, stay away.

Pros

time flexibility, good place for education in the particular field, broad areas of responsibilities

Cons

too overloaded with the operating procedures, a lot of unnecessary, obsolete or useless trainings. Conservative rather than dynamically developing. a lot of different positions on different levels in the particular field but with the same responsibility
