Pros

Growing and very successful company

Cons

Unfortunately Gartner doesn't seem to value its internal workforce and tries to make them feel like they are lucky to be employed by such a company. Gartner also has very strict salary regulations that do not allow employees to move upwards even if they are achieving promotions so you will never progress in terms of salary (it would rather pay an external candidate 80k then promote a high performing 60k employee and pay them 70k as the uplift would be too high no matter the jump in responsibility) However, this is also compounded that Gartner doesn't provide an inclusive atmosphere around this shaming anyone who tries to bring up salary as senior management think it must be kept silent - As you could expect this is due to different people receiving different uplifts every year (even with same performance ratings) as well as employees in same roles being on different bonus levels If this is also brought up there is a complete disregard for the employee and they dismiss it out of hand also releasing communication that salaries must not be discussed internally Advice is if you wish to progress it will not be the place for you but if you're happy to see out your career at a stable company it would be a fit

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.
