Crucially, they can kick you out of the country whenever they please, which is usually when you are laid off. In Brasil you would have time to look for alternate employment, and a better chance of finding it.
They could (just like in the US), but they don't. Check my comment about my Colombian partner above. He also switched jobs several times before, with a couple months in between, before we met and started our company.
What's the point in putting Brasil above Chile anyway? Maybe Brasil is a great country to go start a company, I wouldn't know. But the article, and this thread, are about Chile and the conditions the country has created (on purpose or not) for high tech companies.
- bilbo0s 17y agoMy only point was that the article is presenting a program for increasing foreign investment, as though it were a program for increasing immigration. The title is, "Chile Wants Your Poor, Your Huddled Masses..." With such a title it appeared to me that the article was about immigration as well. This title invited me to research the issue. What I found was a program to increase foreign investment, which I admitted was laudable. What I did not find was a program to increase immigration, and intellectual honesty demands that we point out this inconsistency in the article. Brasil was simply a convenient 'case in point' of what a reasonable immigration system would look like. Though I think the Brasilians could go further as well. As could our own country.
