Pros

Protiviti is a great place to start a career. For the college graduate, consulting / internal audit is great place to learn and experience multiple aspects of a business in a short period of time with little or no experience. Individuals who come out of consulting/professional services firms definitely have a leg up on individuals in industry as they have gained a set of skills in working between different groups and understanding how a business works.

Cons

The organization is still new although it aspires to be more established and well recognized. The Protiviti name is not exactly a "household" brand when it comes to internal audit and risk consulting - which may be a hard pill for the ex-Anderson types to swallow, but the company is pushing forward. Most consultants will spend a fair amount of time doing public compliance (SOX) work - which can get old pretty quickly if that is all you are staffed to.

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.
