Pros

The only pro is that they are unfortunately super well respected. However, nothing else beyond that. It’s nauseating how great they look on your resume.

Cons

HORRIBLE culture. They like to act like their culture is good but it is horrible. They trap you in your business unit. Lots of work place bullying that is allowed. Horrible pay compared to actual tech companies. They act as though Gartner themselves is a tech company when they are nothing of the sort. They spew out articles that they’ve somehow convinced the tech world they need to consume in order to complete 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.
