Naturally, he's got the brutality to match the scope of his schemes.
Ambition Is Evil: He's got bigger plans that go beyond making money and killing for sport (though he still likes doing both). This Game Theory video points out Jack has many symptoms of borderline personality disorder (pun not intended). Ambiguous Disorder: The mood swings, delusions of heroism and distinct lack of impulse control are pretty clear signs something's wrong with this guy. It's clarified later on that Jack was a lowly programmer before the Pre-Sequel, but worked his way up to being the head of Helios Station, which is presumably a relatively remote position as far as Tassiter's concerned. Of course, having a Siren serving as your personal supercomputer is a hell of an advantage to have. Canonically, he even has Blake, who is the VP of his own department, as a personal lackey at that point. Almighty Janitor: Despite being described as a "low-level programmer" in the Pre-Sequel, he's actually the guy in charge of Helios, having control of all its resources including being able to somehow preserve The Destroyer's eye and using it as a weapon, a massive office and answering directly to Tassiter. Ain't Too Proud to Beg: He goes down from making death threats toward the the Vault Hunters to actually begging them not to go through with helping Angel die. Action Survivor: Sure he helped design the place, but surviving on a space station for several hours with hundreds of ex-Dahl soldiers and the base's own weapons trying to kill him was probably no small feat. Even before then, he could never get Nakayama's name right, though he still hated him for being incompetent and annoying. Accidental Misnaming/ Malicious Misnaming: It was done to him by his boss when he worked for Hyperion, and then does it to his own employees after taking over the company. As revealed in the Pre-Sequel, said grandparent also beat him regularly and drowned his cat when he didn't make his bed. He apparently had an Abusive Grandparent too, as you can find a buzz-axe in his grandma's home, which is labelled a "disciplinary tool". She's been that way for so long that cutting the Eridium flow would kill her, so she literally has no release but death from her torment. HANDSOME JACK FACE BORDERLANDS 2 FULL
Keeps his daughter Angel locked up and pumped full of Eridium because her Siren powers can power the Vault key.If Jack hurts someone with an intent in mind, God help them. The general pattern seems to be that if he wants to hurt someone for his own amusement, they seem to see it as nothing special because he's successful and he does it to everyone. After his death, his office on Helios was made into a memorial museum, with VIP only access, with visitors wearing his mask.
Samuels are only working for them due to him threatening their loved ones, the middle-management suits such as Vasquez and Rhys seem to idolize him and see his poor treatment of them as some weird sort of affection.
