Exciting, fast paced job in which hard work and dedication pay off!
Pros
It is never boring working at Intertek; every day you are evaluating and testing new and innovative products. Setting your own schedule to complete the projects you have been assigned allows motivated, hardworking engineers to shine. Consistent performance is noticed by management and rewarded in a variety of ways (Star Awards, Merit Increases, and promotions). Starting with 20 days of PTO is also a major plus. The benefits are also on par with other global companies. A positive spin on the Cons listed below is that there is room for personal growth for outstanding performers.
Cons
Intertek is a global company and there are many layers of management, even at the local level. As a for-profit company hitting revenue goals is a must, and engineers are expected complete projects within the allotted time. This can be stressful for unorganized or slow paced engineers.
