Employee - Managing Director
Would change very little. The pace of life in a busy investment banking firm can be hectic at times, but that is endemic to any professional services organization. I love working at Headwaters.
Employee - Managing Director
Headwaters is a HIGHLY entrepreneurial environment. Ego and sense-of-entitlement folks need not apply. Performance is highly rewarded.
Employee - Managing Director
Smart, motivated people. Strong work ethic. Highly transparent management. Lots of trust built throughout the organization.
Employee - Analyst
If able to change something -- potentially increase the amount of training for first year analysts.
Employee - Analyst
Just because we're not on Wall Street, we're still a very competitive investment bank. You will work on stimulating transactions and engagements, but at the same time you won't be working yourself to death. You're always "on call," but not to the extent that bulge brackets can be.
Employee - Analyst
"Professionally laid back." We get our work done and are good at our jobs, but we take time to enjoy life and each other's company, both in and out of the office.
Employee - Managing Director
I would increase the number of training programs offered to junior level staff.
Employee - Managing Director
Headwaters' will push you and provide you with a wealth of opportunities. Some days will be challenging where you may barely leave your desk, some will be hysterical, but the important takeaway is that no day will be the same. If you're looking for a boring, corporate, desk job - Headwaters' is not for you.
Employee - Managing Director
We're a team. We work hard and are always striving to achieve extraordinary results for our clients, but we're also like a family. We look out for each other and are constantly working to empower each other and make our team better.
Employee - Analyst
The founder/CEO is one of the best people you'll ever meet. He sets the atmosphere and makes this place a great place to work at.
Employee - Analyst
Everyone works very hard but is always willing to relax and throw the ball around the office when we need a break.
Employee - Vice President
Would change nothing as of yet. I think they got a pretty good work environment.
Employee - Vice President
They do not hand hold. They hire you to get a job done and expect results. As such, you will be treated like an adult upon arrival. However, at entry level, some tolerances for learning curve seem to be made. You work like an adult, you will receive the respect you deserve and most likely pay reflective of those efforts.
Employee - Vice President
Tolerant of all race creeds and genders. Good people. In my interview they interviewed for culture fit before any consideration of skill. Autonomous. No micro management. Unlimited Vacation (if you can use it, but its there). Generally good vibes throughout the office. Surrounded by hard workers.
Employee - Group Managing Director and/or Partner
Respect for people's lives, great sense of humor and comradery, hard driving workplace but not callous.
Employee - Group Managing Director and/or Partner
There is room to grow here. Honors self initiative.
Employee - Group Managing Director and/or Partner
Headwaters is a flat organization. Team environment.
Employee - Analyst
Really friendly people and a great place to work.
Employee - Associate
There is a very entrepreneurial spirit and team atmosphere
