Pros

I can't think of anything good to say about them.

Cons

Lengthy hiring process, was pushed-pulled in several directions, and after they extended me an offer (and i put notice in at my old job), they recinded my offer over "Restructuring". Not sure where I'm going to work now.

Pros

They pay a base salary, provide benefits and numerous laughs based on managements incompetence and pay-to-play model.

Cons

Their product will create you to become defensive with clients due to the continuous need to make excuses on why Gartner is unable to deliver on what we present on our website and marketing material. This is certainly a pay-to-play model with the need to invest in Gartner to understand what the analyst are seeking. Yes, you can do vendor briefings as a non-client but you will not have the analyst insight and buy in. If this was not pay-to-play why would Gartner sell reprints and newsletters at a 85% markup? The culture is toxic. To succeed you must become a minion to the incompetent leadership that strives on misconception and lies. Continuous change at the Account Executive level is Gartner's model for misleading and confusing the client. Once a client states concern, Gartner leadership will shuffle Account Executives around to mislead the client while pointing blame on the previous Account Executive. It is alarming and humorous to see how accounts are shuffled from Account Executive to Account Executive in a web of misconception and lies. It is only a matter of time before the truth is told.
