Pros

Its a great brand on your resume. Survive a year and run.

Cons

Management is truly horrendous. Ask yourself why you sweat to get around 130% of goal in the hope of getting to Winners Circle while your manager only needs 101%. Why are managers going to Winners Circle and none of the the team are on the same trip? Infact attendance was so bad for winners circle this year that they actually sent out pity invites. Goals are not set individually but by someone in America and so expect a obscene number regardless of your territory- and if something happens outside of your control expect no leeway. I saw someone dealing with a health problem and still did not have any quota relief. Remember you are just a number here and the turnover is over 50% per year. The recruiters cannot get people in fast enough. Its so bad that recruiters will come on Glassdoor and write fake reviews to hide the negative ones. The utter corruption doesn't end here it is spread all throughout the management. One team was told they would be put on the beginning of Pips because their manager wasn't at goal- regardless of their individual performance. Product prices have gone up so high, they are now more expensive than consultants, customer retention rates are down, growth is down and its all masked behind huge price increases. You will be goaled at 80% retention, but you won't get a territory that accommodates that meaning you are immediately making up the shortfall- then as an added bonus, your goal will include a whopping growth target.

Pros

Five words Commission Nothing Nothing

Cons

Gartner feed on bullying in the UK, the managers in the Midsize enterprise sales are teached to Micromanage and implementing fear-factors, and that coming from someone that had proven good results like winners circle. I have never seen so arrogant, incompetent, power-exploiting human beings in my entire life. If you looking for a place there management are the ex-bullies in your school and found a place where they can take free advantage of their disorientated behaviors Gartner is the place for you. You can also google sexual discrimination at Gartner which they also seem to welcome. Oh and also, you will get in a trouble with HR and most likely fired if you voice any of these concerns. Do yourself a favor and stay the hell away from this place. Or as Gartner would say "its the pathway to gold"

Pros

Resume builder, great place to learn tried and true sales practices.

Cons

Even if you hit winners circle, you won’t get a raise in your first year. If money is flowing it’s good. If budgets are being cut and there is fear in the market, management will crank up the pressure on you, daily morning meetings pressure. They will also blame individual contributors for department wide effects of macroeconomics.
