      It's just a stepping stone

      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

      Great organization for sales professionals, not an environment to develop domain expertise.

      Pros

      Gartner is all about the sales organization. The company offers a good salary with good rewards for overachievement. Gene Hall, CEO, wants to double the size of the sales organization so there is definitely opportunity for growth.

      Cons

      As the organization is growing rapidly, the strategy is all about how to make sales people more effective. There isn't an equal focus on adding analysts, consultants, program leaders or back office support. Sales executives are not expected to gain domain knowledge over time, just become better sales people who sell more services.

      Good for experienced personnel in Technology but not for MBA grads who are out to make a career

      Senior consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Great place to work for those who have a strong background in technology and want to build a career in technology strategy 2. New York city engagements have excellent work-life balance and is headed by an excellent managing partner

      Cons

      1. Training and mentoring for graduates are pretty much non-existent.. There is a formal program but it serves no purpose... 2. A new recruit could be in 2 to 4 engagements at the same time. 3. Within go-to-market practice, face time with the team or the client could be non-existent or minimal. For ex: Sr consultants on many occasions work on engagements without ever going to the client site nor meeting in person either the client personnel or members of Gartner team on that particular engagement
