Pros
Working in a smaller office of Protiviti provides greater opportunity to gain a broad array of industries and solutions within your first few years. In addition, each project you work on has a different team makeup which helps you to learn how to adapt to different team dynamics. The early on opporutnity to get face time with upper level management at clients helps to gain professionalism from your first day at work.
Cons
There is no incentive for consultants to perform at an above average level because each consultant gets promoted on the same timeline. In addition, when consultants begin working for one member of management they can get pidgeon holed under one manager, which does not lead to the vast amount of opportunity provided to other consultants. Project Evaluations are not set up in a way to provide a consistent, objective approach.
