Pros

Moderate to Decent work life balance

Cons

The entire leadership is washed up ex-McKinsey folks. It's not client services, it's a straight up call center. They aren't concerned about business. Only metrics. 'Mission over Metrics' is the biggest lie that they'll tell you on the first day. Its always, let me repeat ALWAYS metrics over everything. Hostile work environment. If you dont hit your metrics, you'll be given warning that you'll get fired. No discussion on why it happened. All the success measures are decided on whims. They got a dream that you should hit 80% here, 90% there. No backing data to support these assumptions. No learning. It's just a fancy call center.

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.
