Business Outlook

Pros

The company is very well run and the atmosphere is very positive - much more to like than dislike. It is a very professional sales organisation with a mature outlook. What Gartner chooses to do it typically does very well.

Cons

Very few - in common with many US based orgs, there is little power in the regions. A little regimented on occasions and tends to always follows its own rules even when they are patently the wrong thing to do. The Strategic Account Organisation is as yet definitely not the finished article.
