Employees say:
- “Although Intercontinental is growing, the upper executives go out of their way to ensure togetherness and promote friendships through outings, congratulatory emails, lunches and holiday parties. They even built a new gym as a way to bring employees together on a daily basis outside of the office.”
- “Intercontinental promotes an atmosphere where every employee contributes to the company’s success. There is also a great sense of responsibility in what is done at the company and an expectation to be a company others respect and will continue to do business with.”
- “Makes it feel like a family-friendly environment. Promotes a corporate culture that has formed lasting friendships outside of the workplace.”
