Pros

Though only four months in, it is so evident that collaboration, curiosity, and integrity are engraned in the Forrester culture. The training programs are in-depth and beneficial, and the transparency of the executive team is outstanding (and rare!) I feel empowered to grow not just in my current role, but within the company long-term.

Cons

Understandably so, it takes quite some time to fully grasp Forrester's solutions. They are complex! Pairing this knowledge along with the strategies and challenges of our clients is not immediately intuitive. If you are a quick learner, know that there will be a bit of a curve -- but that's all part of the fun.

Pros

Forrester is a truly rewarding place to work. I feel like I make a meaningful difference every day, both for our clients and within the organization. The colleagues here are exceptional. They are smart, collaborative, and genuinely supportive. I’m constantly learning from a talented group of people who care deeply about the quality of their work and the impact it has. The culture encourages thoughtful problem-solving, professional growth, and doing work that matters.

Cons

The most challenging aspect right now is the current business performance, which can create uncertainty and added pressure across teams. At times, this environment can impact workloads, decision-making speed, and overall predictability.

Thank you for your many years of contribution to Forrester ! I’m really glad to hear how strongly you feel about your colleagues and the impact of the work. It's wonderful to see the combination of thoughtful problem-solving, collaboration, and meaningful outcomes reflected in your experience. You’re also right to call out the challenges of the current business environment. Periods of change and performance pressure can create uncertainty, and I know that can impact workload, pace, and predictability. I am confident we are on the right path towards growth this year and it wouldnt have been possible without great colleagues like you. Thank you again for your candid feedback, it means a great deal coming from someone with such deep experience at Forrester. Jobina Gonsalves Chief People Officer
