Pros

For those who have been in the HIT industry for many years, there is no comparison to the type of company Health Catalyst has become. Some of the key qualities include: (1) Confidence in senior leadership, (2) Principle-based culture, (3) Prioritize team members above clients, (4) Continuous education and opportunities. One of the indicators of a good place to work is the tenure of the management team, and HCAT must have an extremely low attrition rate based on my experience over the past 8 years. If you are an "A player" and feel you have the self discipline to drive your own career path, HCAT offers incredible growth opportunities, for both team members and clients. I've enjoyed my time at HCAT, and look forward to many years ahead.

Cons

As is the case with almost every high-growth company, the effect of change is felt in many different ways. Much of the discord by fellow team members has to do with how a company deals with growing pains. Not all processes are refined, or rigor in place to handle every situation. Self-drivers and flexible personalities excel at high-growth companies, so fellow team members who want clear definitions of job descriptions, responsibilities, etc., may find themselves in a chaotic environment. Not everything at HCAT is perfect, but compared to the employers from my previous 20+ years in HIT, Health Catalyst is dealing with growth pains in an admirable fashion.

Pros

Wonderful culture. As someone who took an extended leave of absence, I recently returned to find the pillars of a very healthy and productive culture still intact. The leadership and mission are inspiring. In spite of the challenges presented by the current pandemic, leadership has yet again, put the long-term relationship with the company's team members over acute focus on costs or earnings. Likewise, the company has been a compassionate partner with its clients in providing temporary economic relief during these difficult time.

Cons

While the breadth and depth of the product offerings from HC are impressive it can also be a challenge to learn all the offerings and/or educate the market on all of its elements.

Thank you for your review and feedback, and thank you for your over 10 years of contribution to Health Catalyst. And I'm so grateful to have you back at Health Catalyst after your extended leave of absence. Great feedback regarding the value of focus in our product strategy -- I agree with this and we'll incorporate this concept into our 2021 strategic planning process. I'm grateful to be your teammate and colleague! Best, Dan

Pros

Incredible CEO who knows how to align an organization on vision, priorities, and plan Remarkable string of acquisitions of terrific companies Continually improving platform and products Growing discipline around improving service delivery to a growing set of remarkable clients

Cons

A few team members who don’t seem to see the bigger picture of progress and fixate on minutiae. Fortunately there are only a few of these.
