Pros

7 weeks paid time off after 5 years. Good benefits. Good 401k plan. Not bad if you have a decent manager.

Cons

Sweat shop. No work life balance. Work at night, work on weekends. Good luck being able to take a lunch break. The cafeteria space is cut in half as it's also used as a meeting space on a regular basis.

Pros

Terrific coworkers. Nearly everyone at the company is pleasant, professional, and willing to help you even if you’ve never met them before. Hybrid work environment. People generally seem to care about you on an individual level. One of the best corporations I’ve worked for.

Cons

Gartner is not in a great place right now. The business model requires changes and Wall Street analysts have tremendous doubts about the corporate liability in the era of AI. Stock has fallen in half over the past two years. Massive layoffs across the company. Doubt the stability is there for any kind of medium term or long-term career. Below market compensation, offset by pros above when they exist.
