Fabulous brand which opens doors at the highest level.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is very well run and the atmosphere is very positive - much more to like than dislike. It is a very professional sales organisation with a mature outlook. What Gartner chooses to do it typically does very well.

Cons

Very few - in common with many US based orgs, there is little power in the regions. A little regimented on occasions and tends to always follows its own rules even when they are patently the wrong thing to do. The Strategic Account Organisation is as yet definitely not the finished article.

Business Outlook

Pros

Gartner is a collaborative, dynamic work environment, with some of the most intelligent and driven individuals you could hope to work with. No-one is successful at Gartner working as a 'one man band', you can utilise the resources and your colleagues and build your own win team! There is phenominal training, which demonstrates that Gartner invests heavily in the development of its associates

Cons

Gartner operates a matrix management structure, and as such there are dotted lines of responsibility that can cloud where the direction is coming from. This is something that is being addressed however, and there will always be overall control from the US where the company is headquartered
