Gartner reviews

- Management doesn't really care about marketing, they care about looking good to their own bosses, so they will say anything to them to keep them happy - We are doing SPAM marketing (how sucky is that?, its 2016 for heavens sake, stop spamming!) - Lots of smoke and mirror type stuff going on around here, so sad - Morale is crazy, crazy LOW but no one really cares - Their are some people that are in high positions have NO social skills to be there or marketing skills (no joke, serious problem and a morale factor) - I feel like the leaders in the marketing department have no clue on how to really do marketing the right way to build a long term program - Everything takes months to get done because management takes till the last minute to make a decision on something (this is a problem everywhere at Gartner, people are so risk averse even though our own research tells us not to be) Simply put: Our marketing house is on FIRE but instead of bringing water, leadership is bringing more Kerosene!

Management, or better to say micro-management: plenty of KPIs, data, targets. The whole Gartner management are people who have been promoted within the organization - they don't bring any fresh perspective. The majority of them have no idea of what management is, beside long management training hours. Incredible pressure to meet monthly and quarterly targets. Very poor work/life balance. Some arrogant people.
