Pros

Great training Talented and intelligent people to work and learn from Great opportunity for C Level exposure and engagement

Cons

- Culture is crap, seems to be extremely biased on favourites who eventually get promoted despite their skills sets for Sales Manager job - Sales Manager are really Account Execs who achieved their number. They lack leadership experience, people management skills and don't know how to coach. Infact they destroy some good people. - Sales Managers know how to please and play VP's/line above - DEI program is delivering lip service and not genuinely driving any behavior changes within the teams or wider business

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.
