Pros

1. The people ... some of the brightest yet well rounded people i have ever met. 2. The exposure ... from day 1, you are expected to have an opinion and to share it ... that means if you're a jr. professional or a sr. one your insight matters. The infrastructure is very flat which lets you grow very quickly 3. The flexibility ... I can choose to work a day from home here and there and it's not a big deal at all, which makes things very comfortable.

Cons

Fast Moving - Forrester is constantly changing ... so if you are someone who needs process and things to stay the same ... it can be challenging

Pros

Forrester is a truly rewarding place to work. I feel like I make a meaningful difference every day, both for our clients and within the organization. The colleagues here are exceptional. They are smart, collaborative, and genuinely supportive. I’m constantly learning from a talented group of people who care deeply about the quality of their work and the impact it has. The culture encourages thoughtful problem-solving, professional growth, and doing work that matters.

Cons

The most challenging aspect right now is the current business performance, which can create uncertainty and added pressure across teams. At times, this environment can impact workloads, decision-making speed, and overall predictability.

Thank you for your many years of contribution to Forrester ! I’m really glad to hear how strongly you feel about your colleagues and the impact of the work. It's wonderful to see the combination of thoughtful problem-solving, collaboration, and meaningful outcomes reflected in your experience. You’re also right to call out the challenges of the current business environment. Periods of change and performance pressure can create uncertainty, and I know that can impact workload, pace, and predictability. I am confident we are on the right path towards growth this year and it wouldnt have been possible without great colleagues like you. Thank you again for your candid feedback, it means a great deal coming from someone with such deep experience at Forrester. Jobina Gonsalves Chief People Officer
