Pros

Tons of flexibility and great work life balance Decent benefits like charity match

Cons

They literally could not care less about their employees despite telling us they do at every single town hall and team meeting. Upper management is extremely misleading, and lower down team managers aren't given enough information or resources to do anything for their reports despite wanting to. Because of this, career progression is essentially impossible - it is very unclear what you need to do to progress even if you excel in performance reviews. Upper management also does essentially everything they can to be opaque about what is actually going on within the organization, and instead only reports the positives and that everything is fine. Compensation is decent, but would not say its competitive compared to similar roles at other companies.

Pros

Relative to other talent competitors, Gartner does a great job in providing opportunities for growth and advancement, with associates who possess the right mindset and drive the right business outcomes advancing more quickly.

Cons

While Gartner is continuing to grow, the pace of growth has temporarily slowed in recent years due to macro-economic factors and the misperception that AI is positioned to replace the business & technology insights that Gartner provides to its clients. It's been great to see the actions being taken this year to combat this perception and further invest in AI solutions internally to empower the organization.

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
