A Company True to Its Mission and Loyal to Team Members

Pros

Team members at Health Catalyst are committed to the company's mission, its operating principles and cultural attributes. Even as the company scales to over 1,000 team members, the commitment to the HC Way continues. I appreciate feeling supported in my work by teammates and colleagues who I respect and who bring significant talent and dedication to the company. The company errs in favor of team members on a consistent basis, and has kept the mission at the center of our work throughout my time at the company.

Cons

Much of the company's ability to affect change in healthcare is dependent on our clients' willingness to change. This can cause the pace of improvement to be slower than it otherwise might be. Health systems are our primary clients and they tend to be slow to adopt technology and slow to change.

Challenging and committeed

Pros

Excellent benefits and employee personal support.

Cons

Heavily influenced by religious beliefs of a large body of the employee base. Financial or sales success in the moment can outweigh setting up for successful customer outcomes and internal delivery team.

Thanks for your feedback and for your contributions to the company for the 3-4 years of your tenure, and I hope you are finding success and fulfillment at your current company. I acknowledge that my faith informs all aspects of my life, including informing my approach to servant-leadership, and my focus on timeless principles that can help our company be successful, and that can help us build long-term enduring relationships as teammates, as partners to our clients, and with all other stakeholders. These timeless principles, like humility, honesty, love, respect, commitment, and transparency are not specific to my individual faith, but are present in nearly every faith tradition, and also present in many secular writings and teachings. I also appreciate the challenging balance in managing financial sustainability while also enabling team member engagement and client success. This is a difficult balance to achieve, and requires judgment and consistent evaluation, and we are not always perfectly balanced here, but we'll keep striving to find that optimized balance. Thank you again and I wish you continued success in your pursuits. Best, Dan

Pros

Excellent work, benefits, work life balance, and people are present. Sometimes companies look great on the outside, but are not as appealing after peeling back layers of the onion. In this scenario, I have found it to be even better. The leadership is honest, teams are effective, and the company truly puts the best interest of the employees at the forefront.

Cons

Career growth patterns can be unclear. It can be difficult to discern where the next career move might be assuming individual and company performance stays strong. On the flip side, it encouraging to see new business and continued growth. Job postings, while they may not be in my particular area, are out there for all to see.

Thank you for your review and feedback, and for choosing to join Health Catalyst 1-2 years ago! Thank you also for your encouraging words that you've found much about Health Catalyst to be as good or better than you perceived them to be before joining. I also appreciate your feedback about career progression -- we need to keep working here, to try to fulfill the promise that every solidly-performing team member should have a sense for a bright career future at Health Catalyst, which should include, on average, the opportunity to qualify for a company-needed promotion every 3-4 years, inclusive of expanded responsibilities and increased compensation. I also appreciate your advice to continue to strive to stay true to our word. Earning the trust of our team members takes consistent performance over a long, sustained period, and losing that trust can happen very quickly. I never want to do anything that would erode that trust, and will strive to work hard every day as an advocate for team members, to hopefully reinforce that trust in the days, weeks, months and years ahead. Thank you again for your feedback! Best, Dan
