Pros

One hundred plus year old company with a large variety of business offerings. European operations have the most structure and experienced employees.

Cons

Intertek is the rare company that has little regard for either its employees or customers yet manages to stay in business by purchasing other companies. If you are considering a business development position keep in mind that just about everyone at Intertek is in business development and you will not get any direction or help. There is a self preservation culture at Intertek and no one is a team player since they mostly came from various companies purchased by Intertek and protect their own turf. Management is mostly inexperienced and has no interest in helping employees further their careers or improving the quality of customer service. Their labs in the U.S. have outdated equipment and facilities are run down.

Pros

Good group of people in local office.

Cons

Stuck in the past. Unwilling to consider updating methods or procedures. "We've done it this way for 30 years and it has worked." Sales relies upon project engineers to do most of their work for them. When volume of work is slow that becomes the engineers responsibility to go find new clients. Can't reliably pay the most basic of utility bills on time. I've seen the power cut off 2x and the gas this past winter.
