Pros

Flexibility for some depending on business unit and manager. Rigid hours for some especially those in inside sales.

Cons

- toxic environment. Employees constantly gossip and lots of politics in a small office. Management are involved in gossips. - management has no empathy, lacks sincerity across business units. Treat employees as commodities. - Only promote those with good numbers or makes the management happy which is ridiculous as people skills are not considered. This is applicable to all promotions across all business units (sales & non-sales). - Bad behaviors (no due respect, condescending etc) are condoned and portrayed across the management team in Singapore where no checks and balances are in place as they report to global. - No empowerment, only micromanagement - No recognition when you have done well. Under microscope if you make a mistake.

Pros

Relative to other talent competitors, Gartner does a great job in providing opportunities for growth and advancement, with associates who possess the right mindset and drive the right business outcomes advancing more quickly.

Cons

While Gartner is continuing to grow, the pace of growth has temporarily slowed in recent years due to macro-economic factors and the misperception that AI is positioned to replace the business & technology insights that Gartner provides to its clients. It's been great to see the actions being taken this year to combat this perception and further invest in AI solutions internally to empower the organization.

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.!
