      Great Heritage but... - Anonymous employee Intertek Employee Review

      Pros

      Some really impressive colleagues (experience, technical skills) and good quality service being offered to customers. External reputation in the market is strong. Brand heritage is very good. Staff shows integrity.

      Cons

      25% staff turnover per annum with a majority of voluntary leavers: losing a lot of talented people. Extreme performance culture with daily reporting on sales. Unrealistic targets for profitability and revenue growth which makes it hard to truly motivate staff. HR leadership and support is probably the most dysfunctional I have experienced in a career spanning 30 years. Lack of basic HR policies and no genuine passion for talent development. Very impatient Exec team.

      Pros

      Good group of people in local office.

      Cons

      Stuck in the past. Unwilling to consider updating methods or procedures. "We've done it this way for 30 years and it has worked." Sales relies upon project engineers to do most of their work for them. When volume of work is slow that becomes the engineers responsibility to go find new clients. Can't reliably pay the most basic of utility bills on time. I've seen the power cut off 2x and the gas this past winter.
