Poor senior leaders and low values

Pros

Good if your incompetent but like to obey without question.

Cons

Poor leadership as people are promoted in senior positions without relevant education or experience. The way to get ahead is firstly be of Spanish descent and secondly talk over people so you force your viewpoint. Ethics are very questionable as management adjust results to meet plan and reclassify poor results to hide any bad news. Poor global integration and no clear vision moving forward.

Pros

It's an amazing way to experience cultural "diversity" in the oil and gas industry

Cons

Lack of communication and clear vision Extremely cliquey with preference leaning towards sycophants (look it up) Peer relationships are superficial at best. Some remaining employees are only there for their uncanny ability to "stroke egos".

Sickening experience

Pros

Beautiful location in The Woodlands, Texas. Great modern and comfortable office. The End.

Cons

This is a Spanish company masquerading as an international energy company, from work ethic to policies. Completely sub-standard to the energy majors. They generally do not care to adapt to local customs and think they know better than local experts and are often disrespectful as a result. The management style is to give no direction, let the lower levels fight it out and the lower levels have to pretend to the Spain directors that all is well. I became convinced that they create fake work to make people look busy and to create the illusion that the head office is doing great things abroad, and this behavior is nurtured and rewarded. There are many more awful things that I can mention from my experience, things that made me question my sanity, but i think it's sufficient to mention the main themes above, from which all sorts of other shenanigans ensue. The experience was surreal and I was happy to walk away a much wiser person.
