Intertek is a very disorganized company with industrial-age management mindset and practices - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Intertek

Most management have a very old-school mentality, have had very little, if any, mgmt training and have very limited exposure to best practices outside of this industry. The HR organization is non-functional and does not provide any support in this area. The company is extremely de-centralized and there is little coordination or cooperation between the 20+ lines of business or the hundreds of sites. Strategic planning to Intertek means deciding what they will do for the next 6 months. It is singularly focused on month-to-month financial performance and appeasing the investment community. Internal communication is virtually non-existent with almost NO communication or leadership from the C-level.
