Gartner reviews

The company rewards bad behavior and has some genuine bullies in its leadership ranks, a certain "Distinguished VP" being a prime example: he would loom over people while they worked, often assigning essentially impossible tasks and then berating employees when they couldn't accomplish them--either that, or he would ignore you completely, providing zero feedback on your work before unceremoniously reassigning it to someone else. Your needs and preferences as an employee don't even enter into management's thinking; you are just a means to an end--more research, new clients, bigger contracts. Don't bring your real / whole self to work. I saw AMAZING people (who have since gone on to succeed elsewhere) become utterly demoralized and, in some cases, humiliated by management (if they decide they don't like you, they will treat you worse and worse until you quit). I would never work here again nor recommend it to anyone else.

Culture is absolute poison; leaders are clueless and sometimes actively unstable (I personally witnessed two separate managers screaming at employees in the middle of the office on a regular basis.) Once you’ve already signed paperwork and relocated to the office for a job, they enroll you in a 6 week “training” program where they fire about 20% of each class. (Maybe fix the recruiting process instead of wasting everyone’s time and money this way?????) I truly cannot overemphasize just how bad the culture is. I understand that sales roles tend to have high turnover, but this is something else. Half of my training class was gone by our one year anniversary. I would recommend this job only as a transition role out of sales (it’s like a sales/customer success hybrid role, and recruiters love seeing Gartner on a resume) OR for a new grad with no other options (because you could start interviewing at your 1 year mark and find a better job.)
