Pros
If you're up for change, Protiviti can be an exciting place to work because you never know where you will find your niche. You may end up in a specific industry or service line you never imagined would be fulfilling.
Cons
Because everybody's path is different, it is very hard to compare employees. As a result, managers are forced to have monthly meetings to discuss consultants and seniors and how they can be scheduled based on specific skill sets. While this is a necessary evil of the industry, it creates the "Halo/Horn" effect where consultants and seniors are constantly judged. This creates an environment where promotions are self-fulfilling prophesies and some consultants will never be given an opportunity to succeed.
