Pros

Really nothing I can think of, I made great friends.

Cons

The Fort Myers office is very toxic. Your success is determined on your book of business and your manager. If your manager does not like you- better start looking for a new job. Management is promoted on previous years success (which means they were handed a good book of business and made it to winners circle). None of the managers are hired on leadership skills. Upper management (VP level) harasses and bullies people to leave the company. They will put you on a “plan” with unrealistic metrics and no support to help you improve. They will make you feel like you will never be good enough. I honestly never felt as low in my life as I did for working for this company. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT WORK HERE!

Pros

Terrific coworkers. Nearly everyone at the company is pleasant, professional, and willing to help you even if you’ve never met them before. Hybrid work environment. People generally seem to care about you on an individual level. One of the best corporations I’ve worked for.

Cons

Gartner is not in a great place right now. The business model requires changes and Wall Street analysts have tremendous doubts about the corporate liability in the era of AI. Stock has fallen in half over the past two years. Massive layoffs across the company. Doubt the stability is there for any kind of medium term or long-term career. Below market compensation, offset by pros above when they exist.
