Pros

-Future market opportunities due to impending market regulation. I feel with the financial crisis, top management is focused on creating opportunities leveraging our expertise in these areas. -Positive atmosphere. I work with high-quality, highly competent people which make my job much more fulfilling. -Structured environment/methodologies

Cons

-Travel. However, I enjoy the per diems and various other benefits of traveling. -Potential to perform meaningless work. On some jobs, in order to stay "chargeable" which positively affects many management and personal metrics, the work can sometimes be meaningless.

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).
