Pluspunten
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.
Minpunten
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).
