Pros

Since I have worked at Intertek, I have recieved the highest level of respect from all layers of management. They have placed a high level of importance on doing things the right way. They also provide the necessary tools/help to achieve this in a timely manner without killing yourself. The pay is competitive and after being there 2 months I have been offered a position using my degree. It isn't just the fact that I got offered the position though, but equally, if not more important, it was treated with the urgency that I felt about accelerating my career. From the time of making the request to it being granted took only 8 business days, and I was treated like my hard work that I have put into getting my B.S., Minor and 2 related certifications carried value with them.

Cons

As a petroleum inspector working 6 on 24 hour call the schedule is could be more accomidating. They do give a floating holiday though which is nice!

Pros

Decent pay, some good benefits

Cons

Terrible managers. Very unprofessional. Mine acted like he hated me. 4 employees had left the department and the manager had only been there a short time. I wish I had never accepted the offer. Probably the worst place I have ever worked in 45 years of working.
