      Pros

      The culture at Gartner is great. You work with the smartest people and have fun doing it. Good benefits and work/life balance.

      Cons

      Career development is up to you. There is no formal program.

      The quality of Gartner's people sets it above most companies I have worked at.

      Pros

      My experience at Gartner was memorable to say the least.. The client site I worked at was extremely stressful, though exhilarating enough to motivate me to jump up every morning at 4:15 to catch a 5:15 train arriving in my office by 6:30 and back home after dark. I found the Gartner folks I worked with themselves very collegial, extremely smart and engaging and cheerfully focused on reinforcing the corporate brand and being more effective than the competition.

      Cons

      Pressure to maximize billable hours appears to create unnecessary pressures on top of the daily client related dynamics. This pressure tends to suck up continuing educational time required to keep up in fast moving technological areas.

      Disappointing

      Pros

      Working with a market leader, learning enormous amounts about how to manage, conduct business, interact with other companies

      Cons

      Gradual migration of responsibility to a few key members of a central US-based cabal. Terrible politics. Appraisal system designed to demotivate. Constant focus on measurement irrespective of whether it was a sensible thing to measure or not.
