Going nowhere internally. Zero focus on advancement and health of employees.
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.
