Pros

Overall, it is a really great company to work for! I feel that everyone really strives to do the right thing. You will be working among the most intelligent people. A lot of progress has been made in the D&I space in the last 2-3 years. Gartner weathered the storm of COVID-19 really well. You'll have unlimited opportunities to learn.

Cons

Depending on a team, the dynamic might be different (as in every company). A lot depend on the senior leadership, which at large, forms the culture but is not as diverse as the company as a whole is. Hence, there's sometimes a disconnect between the associate population and leadership. There's no formal mechanism to get associates' feedback and incorporate it (no company-wide surveys for example). Some teams are very lean so at times feels like you're doing five jobs in one role. Covid-19 showed that we are productive having flexibility. I am not certain that leadership fully embraces it and my concern is that we will go back to a stiff in-person corporate environment, especially in the Stamford office.

Pros

Terrific coworkers. Nearly everyone at the company is pleasant, professional, and willing to help you even if you’ve never met them before. Hybrid work environment. People generally seem to care about you on an individual level. One of the best corporations I’ve worked for.

Cons

Gartner is not in a great place right now. The business model requires changes and Wall Street analysts have tremendous doubts about the corporate liability in the era of AI. Stock has fallen in half over the past two years. Massive layoffs across the company. Doubt the stability is there for any kind of medium term or long-term career. Below market compensation, offset by pros above when they exist.
