The company’s leadership is heavily influenced by Spain, and there is a noticeable animosity toward Americans. Leadership roles are filled with individuals who act as “Yes” men. When you enter the lobby, you’ll see poster-sized portraits of the Spanish leaders, which feels more like propaganda than decoration. Upon resigning, outgoing emails are monitored before being sent, and employees are prohibited from bidding farewell to colleagues. Emails sent by American employees to Spanish counterparts often go unanswered for extended periods, and responses, when they come, are typically condescending. Employees are warned not to challenge the Spanish leadership, as doing so allegedly places them on a “list.” While the company outwardly promotes diversity and inclusion, a closer look reveals it as a tactic to divert attention from the authoritarian leadership style. This organization warrants an investigation by the Department of Labor.
