I worked with them in the past for a project. Very professional and didn't have any complain working together.

I really like the culture and people. It depends what solution you are in but I do not work on any audit work.

like

Interviewed with them and did not accept the offer. They were great though. Really good culture, just the pay at analyst level was below standard

like

Definitely lower pay in comparison to other firms and 90% of their work is IT audit unless you interview for a very specific group that is actual consulting. Aside from that, heard awesome things about culture and people are very nice

like

Salaries are lower but the counter that has been for years is work life balance which in times of Covid are a bit moot. The work is primarily audit and loan staff depending on office. Fulfillment usually comes from impact at the client, and not going into client offices makes it even more challenging these days.

I was hired at Protiviti right out of college so I don’t have any previous consulting experience to compare Protiviti to.

However, here’s my take on the firm: People and culture are great! Based on my experience, work life balance is good. I rarely work over 40 hours a week. Like most people have said the pay is below average, but the work life balance, people, and culture make up for it in my opinion. I also love the perk of being eligible to take a 3 month sabbatical after working at the firm for a year.

To be fair to the comments about lower pay, external hires can (not always) come in with pay inline with Big4 advisory bands, but typically yes at the lower levels salaries will be a bit lower. Also, as you look at more senior levels like director and MD, comp becomes more lucrative relatively. Nobody will make $1M, but our top MDs can reach mid to upper 6 figures any given year

Hi Fishes,
Need some positive suggestions.

I'm a data analyst(SQL, Python, ETL, Viz) with 6.5yrs exp at LTI(1 Month exp).
I left PWC AC after 6 months of joining because of the nature of dabba work I was getting(80% testing/documentation, 20% technical). Worked for 12+ hrs everyday and wanted to have some wlb.

Now in LTI, life is too peaceful and there's no technical work in current project. I'm getting thoughts like I'm wasting my skills by taking less tech projects at this stage of career.
