Pros

Although the pay might be lower than one may receive at bigger competitors, Protiviti generally offers a better work-life balance in return.

Cons

It is more difficult, than advertised, to move to different teams within the firm. Additionally, you can get stuck on projects that aren't necessarily beneficial to your career.

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.
