Pros

Only work-life balance and flexibility Don't stay here for long, there won't be much growth in here.

Cons

1. The compensation increase for moving up is insulting and nowhere near industry standards. 2. There are only 3 pillars in Protiviti, Tech Consulting, Risk Compliance , and Internal audit and financial advisory. The firm is barely keeping its head above water, resulting in pathetic increments and 'ghost' promotions. Management lacks integrity and relies on a cycle of fake promises to retain staff. A complete waste of time for anyone looking for actual professional or financial progression. 3. To anyone currently in a role and considering an offer from Protiviti, maybe they offer a 15%-20% increment, please do not do it. This is not an 'opportunity', it is a lateral move into a sinking ship. You will find zero growth, pathetic compensation, and a leadership team that relies on bait-and-switch tactics. Protect your career and your sanity by looking elsewhere. 4. Don't be blinded by the 'Great Place to Work' badges, it’s a total fraudulent facade. The award is a hollow marketing scam designed to lure you into a toxic environment. Behind the shiny PR is a culture of broken promises and exploitation. 5. The turnover rate is staggering. It’s a revolving door because the firm is failing its employees. If you want a real career in consulting, go to the Big4 and ignore this place entirely. Don't be the next person to quit within a year.

Pros

Good WLB Great Bosses Health insurance & benefits are awesome Very flexible workforce Easy to climb up in promotions

Cons

Pay is below standard (Although I feel you still get paid decently for the area) If you're put on a production project, be ready to feel stuck. Management is very lost on where they want to head into the future. I am worried this company won't last much longer (Former arthur anderson) Can feel clique-y at times amongst peers (but this is not a problem of the company specifically)

Pros

1) Chicago office has a good culture, overall. It’s not perfect but most of the people are great. 2) Work-life balance score has been solid (about 5+ years of insights here) 3) Although it was not great this year, Incentive compensation has overall been pretty good over the course of 5+ years. Much better than big 4 in my experience.

Cons

1) Since 2023, the culture hasn’t been great for a variety of reasons (mainly due to sluggish performance and growing too fast) 2) It feels more like a temporary staffing agency versus a consulting firm for a lot of the time. 3) There has been an awkward push for a return to the office and more business development focus that is in stark contrast to what most Protiviti people value. 4) Most people I talk to say they are not motivated by most of the MDs they interact with (this is significant in my opinion).
