Pros

leading company in its business, truly international environment, good training / technical competence growth opportunities

Cons

complex organization, improved a lot since Country-based, Intertek as One organization took place. At managerial level you still need to have "sponsor" and alliances to grow in the hierarchy but it is not so different from any other large multinational entity. Here it is a bit more difficult due to the legacy of so many acquisitions and the very diverse and ample range of businesses

Pros

Handed down the same responsibilities as full-time staff

Cons

Pay is only a fraction of what full-time staffs bring back. Interns are always thrown the unfavourable working shifts. I was once called back on a Sunday to the lab to test urgent samples. There is poor health and safety standards for the staff. Working in an environment full of carcinogens, almost everyone doesn't wear proper protective masks unless there was an audit going on.
