Pros

Fantastic brand and people to work with. Real visibility into CIO level issues and drivers. Stimulating colleagues and access to SME research analysts.

Cons

Money, money, money. Gartner seemed to have lost touch from real world on pay packages and benefits - specially when it comes to Consulting. That's a real shame, because it keeps losing bright and experienced people despite having a strong pipeline.

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.!
