Pros

Free soft drinks for employees.

Cons

A corporate culture clash between Spanish management style and American staff. Some Spanish managers rarely spoke to their American employees. Instead of distributing news and information to everyone in inclusive team meetings, some of these same managers would communicate information to only a few of the staff (often the conversations were in Spanish) and then took for granted that the information would somehow get passed along to the rest of the team (which generally didn't happen). There were also incidences of a few employees (to be fair, none of them were Spanish) who hoarded technical information that should have been shared with everyone; I assume this was to impress their bosses with their technical knowledge . And there was a manager who harassed and mistreated the female staff; HR and senior management turned a blind eye for quite awhile, but fortunately he eventually left the company. But so as not to be entirely negative, did I mention the free soft drinks?

Pros

- Work & life balance: one of the best aspects for sure - Access to Technology: no limits in investing to make projects heading to success - Location: The Woodlands is a wonderful place to live and work - Autonomy in projects and relatively easy decision chain - Job stability: another strong point in favor of Repsol - Professional challenge: interesting projects - Diversity: good group of people from different latitudes

Cons

- Compensation and benefits: pension was scratched out of the list not long ago...salaries need to be more competitive - Management needs more training on soft skills, people management and focus on organizational issues - Communication needs to be improved with more adequate channels and processes.
