Pros

Protiviti has a great culture and hires a lot of bright, fun people. The work life balance is great as the hours are not too long and you start off with 20 paid days off in your first year. There is a clear path for growth within the firm, and they reward their employees for their high performances. For lower-level employees, there are a lot of opportunities to work with Directors and Managing Directors.

Cons

Its a niche consulting firm (which could be listed as a pro), but if your interests do not align with the group you're in, then you will not enjoy the work (Internal audit, Regulatory Compliance, Technology). It can be a struggle to control the types of projects you get as a lower-level consultant or senior consultant and there is a good chance you will be staffed on a large production style project during your first year. Pay is fine, but lower than competitors.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, your feedback is very important to us! I am glad you have been having a chance to work with many people within our firm, particularly at various levels. I have truly valued the opportunity to grow throughout the course of my career. I encourage you to use those CTO days to do something fun and recharge. I encourage you to have an honest and open conversation about the type of work experiences you have to achieve with your Talent Manager and/or Career Advisor. Both are advocates for you to achieve and obtain the professional development opportunities you would like to during your career. I realize that these conversations can be hard to get started, but I can tell you from experience that people really do care here about your growth and that your interest align with those of the projects you are working on.

Pros

Compared to other consulting firms, the flexibility in the management here has been amazing. In my experience, teams do whatever they can to get the job done but also acknowledge that we have lives outside of work and are accommodating to that.

Cons

Pay is not competitive compared to other consulting firms and leadership is not as innovative as they could be.
