Schwab Master Account Structure for Growing RIA

Looking for suggestions on how to structure our Schwab Master Accounts, for those with experience in scaling an RIA. We are a growing team, just acquired another advisor, and then added one of our own advisors.

We are trying to decide between individual account visibility settings or creating brand new Master Accounts for each advisor. For context, our own Advisor currently has 9 Masters. We estimate that each advisor, due to the strategies we are running, would need their own 7 Masters. This is quickly adding up for those of us who have access to all of them!

Is this the best approach - adding their own Master accounts? Or would it be better to manage visibility for each new account and add them to existing masters? TIA!
