Pros

HighTower has many great, intelligent, hard-working employees, but that's not enough.

Cons

HighTower hasn't decided what kind of organization it wants to be. It is constantly reorganizing its departments and causing confusion and chaos without thought for standardized processes, especially during a RIF. No thought as to how the work will get done once the RIF is over. Human Resources is a mess and does not add value to the organization. Turnover in accounting and finance at corporate is very high. Changes at the top can likely propel this organization into the future. The CEO and CFO are always looking to make the next big deal without understanding what resources are available to get these last minute deals completed. If you don't like constant chaos, this organization is not for you.

Pros

Flexible PTO, good healthcare and maternity/paternity leave plans, inflation raise each year with a bonus dependent on company profits. Supportive and friendly staff.

Cons

Mostly in-office work with one WFH day. Not many raise opportunities past the one each year to account for inflation.
