Pros

Gartner pays well if you come from an external company at a high position. Gartner pays you to travel all over the world if this is something you enjoy. If you love working, you will have continuous work.

Cons

The Event Management team is led by terrible leaders and if you have not worked there since the beginning you are always on the cutting board and your job never feels safe or protected. During Covid, the team was pleasant but as Covid was over the nice people were discarded and the mean women ruled once again. You will work 70+ hour weeks (never see family & friends) and still not feel relevant. It is difficult to get promoted. If you start at this company, you will have a low salary till the end. Don't depend on HR as they are paid by the company and there to help the company not the employees. Stressful team No work life balance

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.
