Pros

Management is very open and it is helpful, especially when the company is going through so many growing pains and reorganizations. The benefits are great, the PTO and Holiday schedules are very generous. Great work life balance. Dan is a great CEO. He not only knows my name, but can remember my wife and daughter's names as well. I did start when it was a smaller company, that might be a contribution to why that would be. There is a great culture at Health Catalyst. Working on their products really helps give meaning to my job. I feel that the products we provide to our clients will change the outcomes of patients and help make everyone better off. My experience has been that the managers are looking out for you and allow you to grow into positions that you would like to move into. Health Catalyst provides tools to help you learn along the way as well.

Cons

There are a lot of changes being made right now. Hopefully, everything will settle down once the company becomes more stable (I hope that is soon). Some people seem to forget how great the benefits actually are. It seems they either have not worked anywhere else or choose to forget the prior places they worked. It seems that every year Health Catalyst is pushing to the very last minute to hit their goals. This may be every company as I have never been at a company that shares as much as Health Catalyst does, but this seems to make certain timeframes more stressful at work trying to hit the goals (which sometimes seem to be really stretch goals). The culture seems to hire very similar people. This makes it hard to get much diversity in teams. I think more diversity would helping pushing the products to be what they need to be for the company to really succeed.

Thank you for your thoughtful, detailed review, and for your contributions to our company's success over the past several years. I'm so glad I was able to remember your wife's name and your daughter's name, and I also wish I could say that this was true with every team member and their loved ones. I've fallen a little behind (as evidenced by a Q&A session today in Minneapolis with our APR teammates--I couldn't remember several team members' names, unfortunately) , but we as a leadership team remain focused on the goal of knowing every team member's name, as a signal that we care about, respect and appreciate every team member. I also really appreciated and agreed with your observations about our companywide goals and our bonus plan. I'm hopeful that our updated structure & framework in 2018 and beyond will help us improve in some meaningful ways. I hope that a year from now we will look back on our performance against a somewhat more conservative 2018 operating plan and see that we met or exceeded the operating plan targets for each quarter. That will not be easy, but it is more possible in 2018 because our plan is a little more conservative, particularly relative to our growth forecast. I also appreciated your observations about diversity in the workplace. Linda Llewelyn, Leslie Falk, Lauren Udwari and I just co-authored an article on this topic as part of our continued focus on enabling Health Catlayst to be a best place to work for every current and prospective team member, including team members with incredibly diverse attributes, characteristics, backgrounds and experiences. Here's the link: https://www.healthcatalyst.com/diversity-in-the-workplace-principle-driven-approach We'll keep working every day to improve. Thanks for your contributions to that improvement--glad to be on the journey with you!
