Pros

The company walks the walk when it comes to diversity and inclusion. Great environment for know-it-all types that can consult endlessly and sound convincing. If you have this skillset then you would be an excellent analyst or manager at Gartner.

Cons

Tactical leadership from management is at an all time low. We need fewer "idea people" and more people who can communicate exactly what to do, which is exactly what all the management I interact with is utterly incapable of doing. I have never been in a company where everyone was so unhappy all the time and generally clueless about what we are doing. It seems to get worse every year.

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.
