Pros

I've worked with Protiviti for over 7 years and loved every minute. The leadership is accessible, down to earth and flexible. You are not overworked unnecessarily so that you have a balance between work and life. There is a conscious effort to help the community through service and charity as well as social events organized to build the culture amungst the employees. Compensation and bonuses are competitive and promotions are given to those that deserve it.

Cons

Travel is expected which may not be ideal for all employees.

Pros

My experience with Protiviti has been a very positive experience. I have found the culture amongst all levels and offices to be amazing. The people are truly what separate Protiviti from other firms. I like the aspect that the firm is growing...providing many opportunities across the firm. I have found that Management looks out for its people. Often you find that goal setting, etc. is just an "exercise", I feel Protiviti really works with you and identifies opportunities for you to advance. The advancement opportunities are clear and the path to success is straightforward.

Cons

The consulting world is not for everyone, and often those who do not succeed are not as Self Driven and motivied as others. You need to make/create some of your own opportunities initially to prove yourself. Internal networking is a big part of getting started. The benefits, specifically the 401K match are light from what I have experienced at other firms. Also, you don't have too much control over your scheduling...it is a customer service business and requests can't always be met.

Pros

When you put together one of the fastest growing companies who has just hopped into the 100 best companies to work for with only 10 years of existence your bound to hit a good opportunity. Your guaranteed responsibility, a learning experience, and a friendly social culture. Also, the company is expanding very fast, so if you get in your likely to be guaranteed timely promotions.

Cons

Although you receive a lot of responsibility fast, the training program ends after the first two weeks. After that you are at the wit of your manager. Different managers have different training tolerances, some expect you to learn it all and some micromanage. Point is: you have to do a lot of it through simple observation, and many people don't know what they are doing when they start their career. A lot of the projects are things auditing, SOX, and regulation compliance which can be dry.
