Gartner reviews

High expectations and high workrate - maybe this is a pro! Processes can be clunky for the size to which the company has grown Stack-ranking review process, though carefully applied, means that some can be disadvantaged even if they work well

- Analysts are treated like rockstars. They travel first class and enjoy the perks of traditional C-level employees, In reality they are not true subject matter experts but IT journalists - Expense policies are ridiculous - there are employees eating out in very expensive restaurants whilst at events (not even entertaining customers) whilst pretty much all other IT companies are attempting to save money - Review process is a joke - employees are given status as "upcoming stars" but then are treated badly by middle and upper management. I know of examples where people have been asked to apply for a more senior role and then the person who asked them to apply is the person to deny the application! - Recruitment process is also a joke - HR advertise jobs which either don't exist or they state the candidate is not a good fit despite numerous colleagues providing referrals and also confirming in writing prior that the candidate is a good fit! - Non US employees do not benefit from the same luxuries as US employees - Not un-typical to other US based companies, Gartner has more job titles than you can shake a stick at. Hardly any of them make sense and I wouldn't be surprised if even the cleaner has a Senior Director or VP title!
