Vantaggi
- A new culture program called Hightower Way rolled out All corporate employees (at all levels) participated in the roll out. We also have 15-minute team based huddles twice per week and corporate huddles monthly to keep culture top of mind. - I have had a lot of opportunities to learn and grow so far in my tenure at Hightower. As a female, I have not felt held back in any way. My manager and our CTO have been very transparent and open with feedback and praise where it is warranted. - Work life balance is much better than other firms I have worked at in the wealth management industry. I truly appreciate our unlimited PTO policy and the fact that my manager, mentors, and coworkers encourage me to take care of myself and my family, first and foremost.
Svantaggi
- Our onboarding process is a bit underdeveloped. Internally on the Platform & Innovation team, we are working to create a process that will ensure new hires have what they need, along with things that make assimilating to a new workplace a bit easier. - The place is fast-paced. However, if you want to work at a company that is growing (and creating opportunities for their employees), it needs to be. There are days that I have back to back meetings all day and other days where I have more windows of time to do project based work and focus. Staying organized and having a good dialogue with your manager and team about priority is important.
