Higherring is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, national origin, disability, marital status, or military status, in any of its activities or operations.
Further, we are looking for people who want to use their power for good and we advocate as a business for pro-social/inclusive policies with elected officials and to bring awareness to our communities. We believe in a woman's right to choose, that everyone deserves to be able to easily vote, that guns should be regulated with at least the same laws applicable to car ownership (licensing and insurance), that we should be vaccinated and wear masks during a pandemic, that white supremacy is a past and growing problem, that humans are responsible for climate change and that it presents a clear and present danger to life on this earth. If those concepts don't align with your worldview, we may not be the employer for you.
