Health Catalyst reviews

Health Catalyst has excellent benefits including: 401K, good health insurance, HSA contributions, bonus structure, snacks and drinks provided, training opportunities, onsite gym, or gym membership reimbursement, other business related reimbursements, etc... There are honestly too many to enumerate. I have worked at many companies that talked about operating principles or cultural attributes, but usually it was just a paragraph on the website or a plaque on the wall. However, at Health Catalyst, employees are actually rewarded for following the operating principles and are led to do so by an upper management team that holds themselves accountable to those same standards. When I hired on, I thought all this stuff sounds great, but I was skeptical based on my years of experience at other places. I didn't write a review right away, because I wanted to see how the company actually conducted itself and now, I am very impressed. It is incredibly encouraging and empowering to know that when our CEO says, "we value transparency," he actually means it. When he says, "we value ownership" we get to see him demonstrate it by example. In nearly 20 years of professional software development, I have never seen a senior management team actually care about their employees, conduct themselves with integrity, or manage to create and foster such a wonderful company culture. Additionally, many of these positive examples have come during periods of difficulty or less than ideal circumstances. Employees are encouraged to enact change from the bottom up, which provides us with the opportunity to identify problems, propose solutions, get the help from our peers and enact the solutions with the blessing of the folks above us.

The executive team is amazing. The CEO and all the other "C-level" leaders seem to be truly invested in preserving the company culture. I believe they really do care. They are approachable and available to talk to any employee. The company also has some pretty visionary "heavy hitters" in their leadership ranks, which will ultimately make the company hugely successful. There are some amazing upper-management people who really care about the company and it's culture, so consider that when you read the "cons" below. Most people are very friendly and willing to teach you and help you fit in with Health Catalyst. Most teams have amazing team cohesiveness; everyone genuinely believes in what they're doing. That's probably a function of Health Catalyst actually doing amazing things in the healthcare industry.
