Pros

Nothing to think and write here

Cons

One of the worst companies to work for. There is no room for own thinking; have to follow what someone above says whether rite or not; else it wld become an attitude issue, Hopeless office location and environment. Never would feel like working for a reputed company and being surrounded by professionals. Only talk but the work is of very poor quality. Never take up interviews or join if you have an offer.

Pros

Work life balance if you're doing the work most of the consulting team does (copy from Gartner reports and paste it into a presentation)

Cons

1. No learning 2. People oversell themselves - Most of them are just copy pasting the stuff from Gartner reports into a presentation given to them from an on-site consultant and showoff that they are better than J.K.Rowling 3. More than 85% of the team does not have a consulting or an IT background( this being an IT consulting firm and people don't know what a server, cloud, VM etc. is) 4. There are no defined parameters for the year-end appraisal and no defined metrics to measure performance ( Gartner has defined some metrics but they aren't able to judge associates on them) 5. The India office senior leadership has no clue as to how to sail the ship and are always awaiting instructions from the "top" 6. They will ask you for your passport before all your other documents at the time of joining - don't be mislead, you never get to travel onsite 7. Lot of salary disparity between people with the same designation - People on the same designation with little/no-experience are way more than people with relevant experience

Pros

Strong research - some of the strongest and most experienced analysts in the industry Keen (some would say aggressive) and generally very good sales people Nice new office in Egham

Cons

Gartner Consulting is to be avoided - it is essentially an immature cowboy like sweatshop with plenty of 'primadona' partners who rule by creating an environment of fear and intimidation - and the Industry leads turning a blind eye to it all - avoid at all costs if you value your health and sanity
