      Specialists are disposable

      Advisory analyst

      Pros

      - Big name in the tech industry so it sounds impressive - You get to work with a team of very intelligent people - You get first-hand experience with working closely with top executives

      Cons

      - departmental tasks/goals do not align with a cohesive organizational strategy - depending on which team you work for, they disregard negative feedback as statistical anomalies - the recent merge was not well fleshed out, systems and processes don't match and specialists are left to pick up pieces. If you bring this up, leadership will tell you to just make it work - they want to say they're all for diversity and inclusion but just a clear look on the organizational chart says otherwise - The promotion of some new Team managers do not make sense, being a great researcher does not automatically mean you're a great manager

      Great learning opportunities and challenging work, but EQ is lacking

      Pros

      Gartner is full of smart people who are passionate about their work. It's a great place to sharpen your skills and gain valuable experience. Brand is respected in the marketplace and product is high-quality. Sincere focus on diversity and inclusion.

      Cons

      The "EQ" of Gartner, with the exception of some standout individuals, leaves much to be desired. Communication is lacking around sensitive issues like restructuring, departure of a leader, etc. When communications happen at all, they are sterile and expressions of empathy (if there are any) ring hollow. Many individual managers are excellent, but quite a few senior leaders have poor people management skills. Clearly this attribute is not a required competency at the firm - except perhaps in words only - for all leaders. Additionally, despite a lot of stated focus on women in leadership, individual departments still function like a boys' club. Not because there aren't women in leadership roles on those teams, but because the women on those teams have no real power or influence versus their male colleagues, are held to higher standards and progress less rapidly upwards.
