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.

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.
