Pros

The pay is pretty good. Lots of room for upward mobility, because people are always leaving. You can walk away from Highgate and at least feel like you have left purgatory.

Cons

Be prepared to be worked like a mule. If you're a manager, you will most likely be miserable. At least, that is what every junior manager has expressed to me. And there are a lot of them. Hours are long, responsibilities tedious and it seems keep getting piled on. Every week there is a new thing. HR is pretty useless. Not once did that department actually solve anything in a direct and pragmatic way, if ever solved. Bottom line is all that matters in this company. Your replaceability will be apparent. Sometimes when the leaders speak to you it sounds like they are reading straight out of management 101. Feels very forced and stiff. Not to mention very dishonest. Their health insurance is not very good and end of the year bonuses are laughable to say the least.

Pros

Not applicable , the company’s bad reputation is not just rumors

Cons

This company has absolutely no flexibility for employee requests however you are expected to work 7 days a week , 15-18 hour days. Medical restrictions and disabilities don’t mean anything. No compromise on their part. No recognition, No compensation, No mental health support … They will burn you out, not care how their workplace tactics affect you or your work moving forward. They will then set you up to fail then use it as a reason to start the process of getting rid of you. No empathy for people. They refuse to accommodate requests for certain people but then others, no problem. Discrimination & Favoritism, I have never met a group with such evil intentions. All their claims about employees first are farthest from the truth. They only follow policies when it is convenient for them and depending on who it’s for. It’s all about who you know , not what you know Bottom line - the company is a total scam. The less you do the better. The excuses and practices for over compensating upper management is a joke.
