Pros

Great team environment and culture.

Cons

Whoever is determining the quotas is clearly out of touch. The c suite must be a mess, because all the changes they're making is driving Gartner's clients away, which the AEs then have to take the hit for. Much of the Business Development team is incompetent. One girl sold one of my assigned accounts Gartner based off a complete lie. She told them they would have access to data that Gartner doesn't even have. They obviously didn't renew, so I then had to take the $130k hit while she faces zero consequences. While I had a great team experience, there is a lot of toxicity in sales.

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.
