Pros

Flexible hours. Opportunity to telecommute. People are fairly bright, multi-talented, come from varied backgrounds and are generally helpful.

Cons

Constant efforts to meet deadlines. Not having the most up-to-date computer equipment or software was a constant source of frustration. There seemed to be an expectation that each member of a team should have a complete skill set rather than having a team where skills are complementary and team members would cooperate on assignments. Sudden layoffs. People would just disappear without warning and first you would know of it was an undeliverable message after sending an e-mail.

Pros

Good benefits and work from home schedule

Cons

Gartner has lost much of what once made it a great place to work. The culture has become increasingly focused on micromanagement, with excessive oversight and an overwhelming number of metrics driving day-to-day activities. Employees are often measured on quantity rather than quality, creating unnecessary pressure and reducing job satisfaction. What was once an engaging and collaborative environment no longer feels enjoyable. Morale has declined as leadership places more emphasis on tracking performance than supporting employees. Staff are frequently treated as numbers rather than valued contributors, leading to frustration and disengagement. Overall, the company has lost its luster. Unless significant changes are made to improve employee experience, reduce micromanagement, and foster a more supportive culture, it will continue to struggle with retention and employee satisfaction.!
