Pros

- Great work flexibility (depending on your team) - Yearly salary increments - Opportunities for internal growth

Cons

- Management has changed a lot within the past few months - Once a stable place to build a career, now no longer (e.g. recent layoffs) - Lots of politics between management and within teams (e.g. personally hung out to dry by my manager and coerced to leave the team and company, but at the same time, also had a very supportive manager in my previous role and team. So be warned that there are incredibly toxic teams and managers who will act only in their best interests and behind your back, especially if you're in the Talent Acquisition space.) - Flexible hours, but no work life balance with the results you're expected to bring in

Pros

Good benefits and work from home schedule

Cons

Gartner has lost much of what once made it a great place to work. The culture has become increasingly focused on micromanagement, with excessive oversight and an overwhelming number of metrics driving day-to-day activities. Employees are often measured on quantity rather than quality, creating unnecessary pressure and reducing job satisfaction. What was once an engaging and collaborative environment no longer feels enjoyable. Morale has declined as leadership places more emphasis on tracking performance than supporting employees. Staff are frequently treated as numbers rather than valued contributors, leading to frustration and disengagement. Overall, the company has lost its luster. Unless significant changes are made to improve employee experience, reduce micromanagement, and foster a more supportive culture, it will continue to struggle with retention and employee satisfaction.!
