Bureau Veritas reviews

The company is not managed the same way all over the world

So where do we start? The training process is an absolute joke, you are rushed through different subjects (of which you will be inspecting in real life). No exam to confirm you absorb the information, and within about 6 weeks you are pushed out of the door to fend for yourselves. Now it starts, you quickly learn it's all about how much asset time you get in every week as this is how they make money, area managers in competition with each other to shine in front of higher management with their asset figures. The poor planning means you go to jobs which may be low asset times, non existent, not available, or all of the above, but not to worry as it will be your fault and you should have found more assets during the day. The software system is an absolute car crash as it uses 2 systems which need to communicate with each other but actually don't on most occasions, but thats your fault as well. Everything that can be done cheap is done cheap and then they review it in 6 months to see how cheap they can make it again, tools, cars, phones you name it they've skimmed it. Forget fostering a working relationship with customers as you may never return to the same one twice, (motivation at it's best). Panic management is the order of the day every day. The best thing to do (as many have) is take it as a step on the ladder to getting a decent job with a real company.
