Pros

Exceptionally talented and motivated people, you will definitely meet the creme de la creme at Gartner.

Cons

Sales hungry, metric- driven organization, your success is exclusively measured by the color of your performance dashboard. Management is just a middle layer with very little power to change things. Most of them lack basic people skills and have a very standardized and institutionalized way of managing situation. Very high attrition rates, most people stay within services for 2 years max.

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.
