Pros

New CEO bringing fresh ideas and changes for the advisor community. From the outside looking in, Hightower functions well for advisors. Unique business model and growing.

Cons

Do not recommend working for corporate. In the 2 years that I have been at the company, there have been 0 efforts to focus on career growth and advancement of associate or manager level employees. In addition, every month a new “Head of ___” is hired or fired. There’s a reason why you always feel like you are talking to someone new in the home office. This creates a perpetual cycle of turnover while facilitating an environment where associates are left taking on manager/director level work, while new directors and “heads” are hired above them. Not sustainable. No real talent will stay with the company at its current rate.

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.
