Pros

There are no pros at HighTower. The best part of HighTower is when you quit cause its so terrible.

Cons

Management actively pumps fake reviews into glassdoor, its an internal initiative. Look at some of the glowing reviews and the dates, you will see a pattern. What a mess this place is, if you don't believe it then look at how they didn't go public when they thought they would. They are barely staying afloat, lucky for them some sucker pumped in a capital injection. The board needs to clean house starting with the C level execs

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.
