According to their Watchtower web site:

Evolutionary theory and the teachings of Christ are incompatible.

So they absolutely reject Evolution as defined by the theory that life arose from inanimate chemicals, formed into self-replicating cells, and slowly developed into more and more complex creatures, with man being the most intelligent of its productions.

As far as intelligent design is concerned, they also suggest that it does not go far enough. Intelligent Design only theorizes that life, or the universe, cannot have arisen by chance and was designed and created by some intelligent entity. Jehovah's Witnesses state unequivocally that specifically God created everything, not just some vague "intelligent entity." In that respect, their beliefs are compatible with intelligent design but intelligent design does not go far enough.
