      Horrible

      Pros

      Some flexibility in your schedule.

      Cons

      This companies ethical and moral compass is completely out of whack! The bottom line is the only thing that matters even if it means their clients, employees or general public suffer the consequences of the companies actions. I guess I should have inferred this when I learned that the company was created by some of the same individuals whom previously were part of Enron. Most of their accolades are driven by the organization. For example as an employee of Protiviti we were asked (harassed) to feed sites like glass door and complete surveys for the best companies to work for, etc. Its a lot of smoke and mirrors at this company.

      Senior Consultant

      Pros

      You get a chance to work with some really smart people who are more than capable and often come to Protivit looking for a better company culture and flexibility they may not have gotten in the big 4 or larger consulting/audit firms.

      Cons

      There is absolutely zero diversity at Protiviti. Unless you fit perfectly into a box, management with exclusion of very few don't know what to do with you. As a firm growing at a rapid pace, it makes sense to update your resource planning and deployment practices. HR is a joke, during my time at Protiviti, I witnessed countless HR violations some directed toward me others toward team members. The problem is HR isn't readily available to listen and react, they always seem to be two steps behind. Even my resignation took two weeks to be submitted because there was no one to take my call or respond to my meeting requests in HR. Working for Protiviti was a nightmare.

      Job Title (what you're told): Consultant; Job Description (What you actually do): Auditor

      Pros

      Relocation opportunities, cool people that you work with.

      Cons

      Don't pay high enough for the work you do. You have to drive A LOT, prepare to be in traffic sometimes 4 hours a day because the clients aren't in San Francisco. You aren't a consultant, you most likely are just going to work on SOX Audits

      Thank you for taking the time to post this review. I am pleased to read that you enjoyed working with the team in the Bay Area. I agree there are fantastic opportunities to relocate domestically and even internationally, both on a temporary and permanent basis. I am however sorry to read that you felt under remunerated for the work you did. Protiviti partners with a global consulting organization to ensure that we are aligned with our competitors at local market levels, for each of our career levels and solution offerings. For Consultants who join the Company from campus, we also collect and receive a lot of data through the campus hiring process. What is certainly true is that the market in the Bay Area is 'hot' and moving constantly. We are confident that our 'offer' (taking into account the total compensation package offered), is very competitive in the market for similar positions. This equally applies to experienced level positions. As a Bay Area practice, we do support clients across the Bay Area. This includes San Francisco, South Bay, East Bay and North Bay clients. We aim to provide a clear and consistent message regarding the location of our clients during the hiring process. We also have an office in San Jose to support the South Bay clients. Our intention is to do the best we can to limit individual commute times, through our resource management processes. I also acknowledge your comment regarding the nature of work. In the Bay Area, we have a good diversity of work across our technology, risk and internal audit services. This includes SOX work, which maybe higher than other markets given the IPO activity in the Bay Area. Our aim to provide every Consultant who joins the Bay Area team with exciting and challenging work experiences that provide them with the skills necessary to be a successful consultant as they build their career long term in Protiviti.
