Vantaggi
- An extremely friendly and collaborative group of co-workers - Peers who are brilliant and thought-leaders in their fields - An immediate level of respect from the technology and investment community, off the brand that Gartner has created - Relative healthy work/life balance
Svantaggi
- Intense focus on analyst metrics, tracking almost every aspect of your day - Lack of focus on the analyst as an individual with unique talents, and rather a focus on the analyst's ability to satisfy quantitative measures - Forced stack rankings based largely on quantitative metrics are how analysts are evaluated, which leads to unhealthy tension and distorted incentives - Compensation and benefits are well below industry norms, with no stock grants, very limited ESPP, and marginal annual raises.
