Worst Place I Have EVER Worked

Petroleum inspector

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good exposure to many products, great crew, decent benefits.

Cons

In the 1 year that I worked in the Texas City, TX location, management has changed the schedule 3 times. Inspectors are now on call 24 hours a day 6 days a week. No guaranteed 40 hr work week, even though they classify you as full time. Management is the most uneducated people I have ever worked with. Very rude, and very detached. If you are single, and only want to spend your life working, Intertek is the place for you.

Pros

Laid back environment, mostly due to the large number of younger engineers employed there. It is a good starter for an Engineer right our of school.

Cons

Poor Pay. No real incentive to stay. No employee development. I decided it was time to leave when they made a 22 year old fresh out of college team leader over myself and other senior engineers.

Business Outlook

Pros

You can learn a lot, from time management to method testing. Great for someone with absolutely no experience. If you are going no where in life then you can go far with this company; knowledge and experience does not matter to this company.

Cons

Management are complete dimwits. To them 2 years of taking out the trash is considered more experience than a 4 year college degree. Very disorganized. Quality Control is never verified and lab techs are known to pencil in SQC numbers. Safety is considerable lacking and sometimes very dangerous. Bullying/harassment from upper management is a extreme issue at this particular location.
