Pros

Smart people Good Comp Plan Work life balance New Australian Management Some focus on health but mostly just physical

Cons

There are Deal Coaches not People Leaders Everything is tied to metrics including badly behaved employees who get promoted because of KPI success Poor Culture - pockets of improvement but overall is still immature, still sporadic and continues to be appalling behaviour by Salespeople and Managers with no HR support Poor benefits and pay is under market values Previously great training has gradually being whittled away, focus is now get people in field and selling Psychological safe place has no relevance here

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.
