Great company to work with. For IT related advisory services/consulting this is probably the best you can get. - Director Consulting Gartner Employee Review

Pros

Access to a wide range of experts and research; contribution is valued (you dont feel like a 'number'); lifestyle (work from home); travel is typically less than with other consulting firms.

Cons

Some clients only think you understand IT whereas Gartner's business consulting capabilities are strong as well. Clients that dont understand gartner's consulting capabilities may see you more as an extension of research than as a consulting partner. Internal performance targets sometimes questionable. Travel sometimes too limited.

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.
