Business Outlook

Pros

Working around intelligent people. Opportunity to meet others within Gartner research and the organization.

Cons

Leadership is only interested in themselves. They have no care in their team, but focus solely on metrics. Recruiters are focused on travel and hiring with no work/life balance. There is typically one person quitting per month, but no change or feedback that is implemented to create a better culture. A horrible and unprofessional work environment.
