intertek Employer Reviews

Intertek believes its the best job ever. Room for advancement if you don't know the upper management personally is non existence. Family does not come first. Don't really care about if your family is sick. You better be to work.

A typical day was testing applications for a new phone that was going to be released.

The problems that come as a course of the work are usually interesting, but the management doesn't like to spend real money on improving the laboratory, such as the building or equipment, which can hinder actually doing testing. Decent pay but not great. Good benefits. Somewhat flexible hours.

Involved with acquisitions. Acceptable staff. Please refer to my resume.

My day consist of billing invoices, corresponding to emails and requests, credit memos, looking into accounts to fix issues.

Nothing but laziness. Boss is never around. People "in charge" are worthless. Older men that cry and complain and they are inside all day...Sampler is a bltch job. All work and no PAY... starting pay is less than $15. Everyone talks behind everyone's back and smiles in front of their face

Lots of work, not a lot of job satifaction. Come in at 8 and stay till you drop.

HELLO...is anybody listening in the UK? Send in the shovel and the guards! INTERTEK Management is making Inspectors & Employees so sick all the good ones are gone. Houston office has forgotten who makes the money for their Manager Power Lunches, trade places sometime. Try getting some experience in the field or in the Coordination "Bull Pin". Turn-over – more... continues and no one seems to care! Management only wants their bonuses and will throw anyone under the bus to get it! Management does not believe in customer service - Clients beware! – less

People within the company don't know what the company does. Clients don't know that the company's capabilities are. The company is missing a lot of opportunities - senior management recognise this, but local management are content to do what they know rather than seek new opportunities.

The company employed some very good people - very capable, qualified – more... and experienced - all have left.

The most enjoyable part of the job was meeting with clients.
The hardest part of the job was managing the communication between line management (UAE), functional management (Germany) and financial management (Singapore) - it was just an elaborate game of Chinese whispers. – less

the safety field the the most important field in the work sites, the concerning by the safety of the workers and the machines saves the money and the wasted time which taken in repairing and replacing the damaged equipment also by increasing the safety culture among the workers the employer will save the reputation of the company and will keep the workers – more... in high moral – less

I have had the opportunity to work with senior level executives and learn many new skills.

3rd party testing laboratory. Lack of direction from management. Long hours. Travel. High work load.

It was very satisfying and comfortable workplace. This job experience has helped me develop my typing skills and communication skills. The management was very flexible and helpful to all employees. The co-workers were friendly and supportive of each other. The hardest part of the job was keeping up the quantity of work with the best quality, and as – more... an employee I can proudly say that I succeeded at that task every time. – less

A typical work day at Intertek requires you to get up everyday and leave all sense of self-worth and esteem at home.

No comments regarding my current work location. As I still need my job in order to provide for my family. Which this company does for us rather well.

was interesting as I got to interact with a lot of clients and learn new solutions for them

I currently work at Intertek and the way things are ran are simply a joke! Management isn't in the loop but they sincerely think they are,they expect you to drop everything in life to cover shift, pay is horrible for the jobs being done! Basically I am looking for.employment else where!

I go to work for 9 hours a day, The majority of the day is spent on the computer except when managing one of the fee-for-service contractor or in a meeting. I work in the field a week a month when it is not turnaround season. The things I have learned most at this job is the amount of organization it takes to work in the office as well as the many processes – more... it takes to get oil out of the ground. Seeing how i am a contractor I have no management at all, yet everyone I work around is great. The hardest thing about my job is sitting inside during the short Alaska summer.The most enjoyable part of the job is the diversity of people I work with. I work with engineers, executives, technicians, environmentalists, Legal, HR, and many other. – less
