What do you like about working at Gartner?

"Exposure to a variety of organizations and exposure to all the key trends and key initiatives . I loved working with the clients more than working for Gartner. The quality of the analysts was overall, good, however because of their rapid growth, the quality went down."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you are young and inexperienced in high-tech, this is an excellent place for you to cut your teeth. The knowledge you can acquire is vast. However, if you are highly skilled, creative, and have had a lot of experience in technology, stay away. Gartner has a playbook, a methodology, and a process for everything. Innovation is suppressed. Inexperienced managers are prevalent and rewarded."

What don't you like about working at Gartner?

"Micromanaged organization for people that are unskilled and inexperienced. If you are intelligent and have brains, then run away quickly. If you are good at following orders and like a cult environment, then you would be perfect at Gartner."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Make key investments and acquisitions to expand the portfolio. Hire good talent from the technology industry instead of hiring people from the services industry that don't know or care about technology. Most of the sales people at Gartner are clueless about technology. Hire qualified sales executives that see employees as investments rather than a body. Attrition rate is high at Gartner. They tend to chew employees and spit them out."
