Pros

interesting research, and analysts, career opportunity to change department after 2/3 years, not before that

Cons

targets are unreachable as they limit the prospects you're allowed to speak to, no management support, all bad things are deflected to the US, built on hopes and dreams not deliverables.

Great people, poor management

Pros

This company is very good at recruiting extremely great people, especially in Research and Executive Programs. This is a very stimulating environment to learn and grow. The brand is great and customers can really find extremely valuable insights if they work properly with Gartner.

Cons

Middle management is by comparison very poor and the leadership lacks strategic vision. Gartner is far better to explain what digital means to their customer than trying to think strategically about what it means for themselves. The management is product (and not service) oriented and more focused on internal metrics than on customer experience.

Pros

I have been working at Software Advice for about 9 months now, and have become one of their top performers. The environment is nothing like your typical IT sales company. I've met some of my closest friends at work and really enjoy my coworkers and managers along my path to a very successful and challenging career. We definitely work very hard, and the sales role is very rewarding. Our company has a very unique group of talented individuals who all bring something great to the table. Some other things Software Advice provides are great benefits, and job security. The company also really cares about their employees and they are always looking for ways to improve our work environment and that's satisfying. The C-level executives doors are always open, and have built a great team of leaders to work with. I feel like they are always looking for ways to better our opportunity and careers. Overall it's a great place to work, definitely somewhere that fits into my long-term career. I took a 50k pay cut to come work here I think that says enough. Oh and of course the stocked kitchen, massage Fridays, the concierge services like car washes, oil changes, and food trucks that come to the office.

Cons

I personally haven't encountered any challenges in my role.
