Pros

- Great group of people to work with mostly - Decent benefits - Annual targets - you can hit close to your target if you get one or two decent sized deals in the year and have renewed your accounts

Cons

- Senior leadership won’t even look at you unless you’re at the top of the leaderboard - Your success is reliant on the book of business you get given and how well the previous account executive did their job to keep the customer happy - Prospect list is small so the best fit accounts have been through multiple sales cycles every year sometimes multiple times a year but with a different account executive - Not a product/service that is a need especially in today’s economy and with AI around

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

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.
