Pros

Prior to coming to Protiviti, I had been with a large manufacturing company for 8 years, and have been with Protiviti for 8 years since. What I liked about Protiviti then is what I love now. Protiviti provides opportunities to develop a diverse set of skills and experiences, assuming you are visionary enough to recognize them and courageous enough to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. I have led projects in our Business Performance Improvement, Risk and Compliance, IT Consulting and Internal Audit & Financial Advisory practices over that time. While I have jumped at the opportunity to constantly learn, I have developed subject matter expertise in particular areas at the same time. Protiviti support structure, regardless your title and level, is outstanding - beyond my own drive, this support structure has been instrumental in my growth and success - while I always feel the pressure to bring my "A" game, I know that I don't know everything and that as I take risks and approach project challenges from different angles, my management team provides support, coaching, mentoring in a professional and honest manner.

Cons

Travel - not everybody likes to travel. Over the past few years, I have traveled almost every week for at least 4 days a week.

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.
