Pros

You will get exposure to different industries and a basic understanding of how companies operate. Protiviti management generally consists of good people who treat you well. Junior level employees get a good amount of responsibly and Protiviti invests a lot of money in training. Overall, you will learn some interesting things & make good friends.

Cons

Companies hire Protiviti as a vendor to complete specific tasks (SOX, IA, IT security assessments), rather than as a firm to provide groundbreaking analysis and creative insights to improve the business. The work is audit focused and the majority of employees (especially those out of college) will spend their time doing SOX control testing and internal audit. In these rolls, you are providing assurance that the business/ people are following the rules and performing their tasks correctly.

This is a career; not just a job

Pros

I have spent a substantial part of my working life at Protiviti and it is a very rewarding place to work. I enjoy working with my teammates and I enjoy working with our clients. We really have a great opportunity to make a difference at our clients and in our respective offices and work environments on a daily basis.

Cons

No organization in perfect, and neither is Protiviti. But they hard to make things better and do a good job of listening to their people and making changes proactively.

Pros

Initially pay is ok, work/life balance is attempted, enjoyable first job.

Cons

Leadership questionable in most offices, up or out scenario still in play, annual "reviews" are a joke, auditing is the firm's bread & butter, if you are not in this track...start looking for another job since you will be hung out to dry eventually. This firm doesn't really understand anything outside of auditing and sox.
