Pros

Well known name in IT field. Nice office complex in Stamford.

Cons

Too many 'management' positions; huge hierarchy. Employee morale was terrible. No care or concern for employees; poor senior management. Such a huge overlap in my former department that they started terminating employees left and right...and 2 weeks before I was due to get my yearly bonus, as tiny as that was! Working there felt like a slap in the face.

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.
