Pros

Nice people for the most part. Dedicated CEO. Decent benefits. Competitive compensation.

Cons

They’ve become so focused on their woke version of inclusion and diversity that they’ve forgotten the business. Their SVP staff (huge by the way) is certainly diverse but the talent base there is about an inch deep.

Thank you for your feedback, and for contributing to our company's growth and success these past 3-4 years. I'm sorry to hear that you've had a negative experience as a result of the company's diversity, equity and inclusion work. That's certainly not our objective, and we're not perfect. I also empathize with the frustration inherent in a dramatic downward shift in our company's stock price. We'll discuss this issue at length in today's All Team Member meeting -- our assessment of what is happening in the macroeconomic environment, how it is affecting sectors of the economy and sectors of public market companies including Health Catalyst, and what we're doing in response. We'll keep striving to do all that is within our power to execute in a differentiated way, with confidence that in the mid- to long-term, markets and investors will appreciate this strong execution. Best, Dan

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I appreciate the thoughtful recognition of our collaborative culture and the meaningful work the team does together. How we work together matters just as much as what we do. Our operating principles and cultural attributes remain foundational. To address your concerns about processes and roles, as the organization evolves, we’re prioritizing clarity in these areas to better support teams. There’s real momentum building right now, and the work ahead is meaningful. I’m grateful for you and the role you play here, and I’m excited about what we’re building together.

Pros

Great Talent & Culture: The people here are highly capable, collaborative, and committed to helping each other succeed. The partnership between onshore and offshore teams works well and is a real strength. There’s a culture of grit and stability that has helped the company navigate multiple major transitions over the years. Mission-Critical Engineering: The work involves complex data infrastructure that requires deep technical expertise. It can be demanding, but seeing these systems run successfully and support real-world operations is consistently rewarding.

Cons

Wage Compression and Retention Risk: Compensation for tenured and high-performing staff has not kept pace with the market for specialized data engineering and support leadership. In practice, tenure can feel undervalued or even penalized. This creates risk around losing institutional knowledge and operational continuity. Stagnant Career Progression: Contrary to stated expectations, strong performance ratings do not consistently translate into meaningful, market-aligned compensation growth. The process of how compensation is benchmarked lacks clarity in practice, obscuring how compensation decisions are made and what is required to advance.
