Pros

I feel compelled to write this review as I get off a call with office leadership regarding the pandemic. It is evident that Protiviti truly cares about their people as individuals and wants to put our well-being before any financial considerations. I think it is truly unique that in an office of 500+ people the leadership team has taken time to get to know each person down to the lowest level, and asks our opinions and feelings. As a recent college grad and vulnerable employee, I feel confident knowing that this company will do everything they can to preserve my employment during trying times. Thank you to Joe T, the exec team, and especially to the Chicago leadership team for putting our people first.

Cons
