Pros

Made some great friends, but that’s about it

Cons

Terrible management - advisors are not necessarily the best and not looking out for your best interest. Management clearly shows favorites- sometimes not necessarily based on their work product Unless if you get into one of the more interesting risk and compliance project, they’re mostly mindless work, that don’t really help you grow or use those skills elsewhere. Luckily I was able to take my experience before protiviti elsewhere.

Pros

Good Culture, decent pay, not overworked too much.

Cons

Repetitive, meaningless, and boring work, hard to pivot out of this career once started. Also, the consulting career feels like such a fake job at times. Doesn't feel like real work. Makes you question your life decisions. I'd recommend any college grads to think about their future career goals first before joining. I joined on a whim and wish I spent more time interviewing. It's been incredibly difficult to pivot out of internal audit and sox compliance once you are in it. However, if you are really good at corporate politics and advocating for yourself you may be able to pivot out of the IAFA solution . However, not sure how that lends it self if you want to leave the company.
