Pros

Flexible PTO hours, health benefits, 401k and stock options.

Cons

After more than six years with Gartner, I have observed a concerning shift in the company’s trajectory. The recent two years have been characterized by frequent restructuring and layoffs that often seem handled with little transparency or regard for employee tenure. Notably, there appears to be a lack of protection for those on paid family leave, and the execution of these departures is often so abrupt that even direct managers are left out of the loop. It feels as though the current strategy prioritizes short-term cost-saving and lower-cost hiring over the retention of experienced, dedicated talent.

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
