Pros

Great people all over the world Learning opportunity’s are endless Good day to day support from management Good work life balence Great client contacts

Cons

A lot of the analyst have over inflated opinions of them selves and need to be brought down to earth. If you are considering working for Gartner you HAVE to get a good starting package as promotions come with very minimal payrises. Cut throat management (they will not stick there neck out for you) Compensation package is poor and complicated, this is not software or hardware sales and you can often end up oweing the company money through bizarre situations. To many pen pushers justifying the existence with pointless roles and projects

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.
