      Rapidly growing yet stable company with opportunities for professional growth

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Good people. Gartner prides itself on hiring intelligent, self motivated and driven individuals and provides you with the opportunity to drive your own career. - Room for improvement. Gartner openly acknowledges it can and needs to get better and embraces employee contributions to accomplish this. They empower you to take a hands on role in new initiatives and processes. - Gartner actively listens to its employees and values your opinion

      Cons

      - Company is very numbers driven and often makes decisions based upon numbers to the street and not whats best for the business. - Sales and Research are king. Other business units are not always treated with the same degree of importance (not interest in advertising consulting or putting in the same type of effort to build the consulting practice)

      Sales account executive - field

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Brand recognition with CxO decision makers - Market leader - Analysts, consultants and executive partners are very sales friendly - Bonuses and accelerators are attractive but can dry up after a couple good years - Great events

      Cons

      - hiring too many AEs, contracting the territories - risk is high and rewards can be low after a good year - many territories are very mature and are loaded up with products, so growth is nearly impossible - the money is not as good as it was a few years ago, top performers earning less and maybe 1/3 are making their quotas - Lots of churn and high turnover of sales in major accounts - Career opportunities are very limited for work-at-home remote areas - Some very absurd rules of engagement on territories, seat locations, sales credits, etc. - Too many AEs working multi-location accounts with different agendas
