Pros

Amazing access to upper level management, ability to own your career, great people who have turned into life long friends - even after some have left, tons of opportunity for internal involvement, top notch mentor/advising program, flexibility with schedule when not traveling, steady raises and bonuses if you work hard and align yourself w/ the right people, transparent view into how to get promoted, positive culture

Cons

Type of work/projects aren't always super interesting, sometimes accept work that is not rewarding to Protiviti's people in order to work w/ certain types of clients, travel can get tough depending on your client/manager, must be willing to travel to do well here

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.
