Pros

There are none, Gartner is the worst company I have worked for in 20 years. Gartner claim to be a lot of things, but in fact I'd say its all smoke and mirrors. if there is one good point, Id say there are some great people in the company, but I cant see it lasting for long - the churn rate is huge

Cons

Lack of clear strategy, lack of execution, treat staff poorly, poor senior management. The product is placed in the market to make the sales guys feel like 'snake oil' sales men. Consulting and EXP are the best services, but there is so much internal politics that they are being side lined.

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

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.
