Bureau Veritas Reviews

Likes

You can learn many new things when you are involved in the inspection of various products, processes, works etc. So your work does not get monotonous. Periodical training modules are exercised to keep yourself aware of the common practices in your field/trade. Apart from witnessing on-field inspection, tests & document review, there is comparatively less workload from the employee's point of view. Most of the managerial seniors & co-ordinators are understanding when your reasons are just. For people getting a back-office job in Bureau Veritas, work-life balance becomes easy. Financial responsibilities on company's part are always disbursed on time. Numbers of leaves are also one of the best in the market considering the alternate Saturdays (& all Sundays) offs.

Dislikes

If you are into inspecting, frequent touring & travelling might bother you sometimes. Visiting or getting posted to some remote places may affect your health. It becomes difficult to maintain work-life balance if you are always on-the-go for inspection to far-off places or posted at some project site far away from your family. Company hierarchy is quite flat for most people, who work in the core inspection services. Either you remain as an inspector, or you rarely become a manager irrespective of the numbers of years you serve. Therefore, salary/appaisal may not look attractive to some. Favouritism may be observed as much as you find in any other company.

Work

It's interesting considering that you will encounter many new types of works while inspecting a variety of products & processes. You will have the privilege to visit some of the most advanced, reputed & developed facilities in your area of expertise.

The company is good in overall. I worked as contract officer over there. Work culture is good and cooperative people. One can spend whole with the company without headache means relaxing job. All facility is given by the given I.e. transportation, gratuity,pf,medical,leave,maternity, one can assume like government job but you have to sacrifice with salary.
Salary too poor. If you look towards salary concern. The salary is given too less for commercial expert, junior commercial expert, contract officer, as per market rate.
From my personal point of view , the company should b give 25k-30k starting for fresher as per company world wide status.
One should b unhappy for the same reason.

Dislikes

Salary is giving to less.

Likes

New products, Vast number of clients and vendors .

Dislikes

Too much of shuffling, lack of stability and lack of appreciation of work, no incentives on good work, low salary and negligible increment.

Work

It is a great place to learn and gather knowledge because of the large number of clients and vendors it deals with. But salary and growth wise it was really frustating as balance between my input(hard work) and output(salary) was nowhere close to ideal.

Likes

Bureau Veritas has the potential to make landmark impressions globally, has it presence in over 65 Countries of the world but lack bonding culture. There are vast opportunities for incredible innovation as challenging opportunities flow in from different clients.

Dislikes

The concept of growth in Bureau Veritas has no defined rules as some could join the company as a senior staff and remains so for as long as 8 years. Well, that was my experience in the middle east where I worked, it could be somewhat different at other locations.

More importantly I liked the minimum basic salary of 5300Rs of this company

It was good experience being a part of BURUEAU VERITAS for 4 & a half years. Overall, work culture, colleagues were good.. Career Opportunities are good if from relevant field.. Salary/compensation benefits was not satisfactory. It's open to new innovation.

Salary/compensation was not satisfactory. Work-life balance was not that good for having less members in a team. Hard work is not appreciated much & there was lack of motivation from the management.
