Pros

Work with some of the brightest, sharpest people on the planet. Support, professionalism, teamwork and many resources to support employees, especially sales. Competitive compensation, interesting people, and you get to feel like you are having a positive impact with clients.

Cons

Internal processes, plannings, strategy, reports can be very tedious and time consuming. Level of satisfaction often depends on direct area manager and how supportive and engaged they are. Very time consuming place where there is always more to do than you have time and energy for.

Pros

Great group of professionals in this organization. Great training, however the breadth and depth of the actual job was not realized in the beginning.

Cons

Too much focus on the gartner way and not enough focus on individuality. Role perceptions between the CP and AE worlds need to be adjusted. Respect needs to be enforced. We are all qualified professionals. Too much focus on metrics cloaked with the word value. They ask us to provide value to clients but we better make sure it's shown by the metrics set in place. There has to be a middle ground. Get more anonymous feedback from your people and listen to them. Everything isn't working perfectly.

Pros

Smart research staff, good learning opportunity if you are interested in IT, many resources available to help accomplish work tasks, good place to be IF you are lucky and get a good manager (rare), a good territory and good comp.

Cons

Run from the supply chain organization. It's literally the last place you want to be at Gartner. Lots of backstabbing in sales with young and inexperienced or bad sales managers at all levels. Shady sales organization in many parts of the company. They do not care about your quality of life and you will be pressured to work LONG hours.
