Working at Protiviti is one step above being homeless

Business Outlook

Pros

There are none that I can think of, other than to be off the streets.

Cons

Management is BEYOND inept; they are only there to sell 'services', Sr. Consultants and Consultants are then left to figure out how to best perform the services. However, there are NO resources provided to assist in completing audits or performing review of client processes. Management cannot be reached even by direct reports.

Business Outlook

Pros

Protiviti has a great culture and a laid back atmosphere. The work is interesting and there is a lot of opportunity for personal growth and developing new skills. The company is relatively new, so there is still a bit of the 'young company' feel to the culture. From recognition and work-life balance perspectives, it is definitely better then the Big 4.

Cons

Some people travel a lot. There have been layoffs this year, but it isn't any different than what has been going on with other firms in the industry.
