Pros

Family, work life balance is very much supported within Gartner. Flexibility of work time is also supported highly within the organization. Gartner provides excellent benefits. Gartner also provides a lot of opportunity to move within the organization and to other locations where a particular business operates from including overseas.

Cons

Lack of accountability by management and associates who should own tasks or projects. Middle management competence is quite low. Accountability usually lies on lower level associates which lowers morale and keeps people from being motivated to take risks and be innovative. Personal ambitions and agendas take precedence more often then not. Thats not to say that many companies are not like that but world class companies operate like teams and not against each other, which seems to be the case across many areas.

Pros

- Great health benefits and salary - A few great colleagues - Talk a lot about inclusion but this has slowly been falling to the wayside - I have been struggling the write this for some time as I wish there were more positive things to say

Cons

- Leadership that does not see anyone or anything but themselves - The company has been imploding for a while lying to the public and the street - Killing off the research model has been the final decision that has made many decide to look elsewhere (including me) - Lay off after lay off has created a culture of fear
