Pros

Plus: Company growth, diverse clients with varying needs = good project variety, employee stock options, fantastic CEO, salary. Culture of humility, transparency and hard work.

Cons

Minus: 'Meh' health benefits though this is probably just a sign of the times, lack of consistent work. Cycles of lengthy downtime (1 week or more) followed by 12 + hours day. Tech training and team building but only for those in Salt Lake (glance at calendars and see what I mean). In general, non mandatory training is self guided and on personal time and not offered or facilitated by the organization.

Thanks for your review, completely agree with your advice around additional training around job skills. Look for a survey coming out in a few weeks on this topic, as we plan additional training topics for 2017. Thanks!

Pros

The management can't be beat. They have built a very open, honest, kind and employee-centered culture. They've really gone above and beyond with the benefits and perks: Great insurance, great 401k match, annual bonus, 12 week paternity leave, motivosity, reimbursement for transit commute, shuttles, nice snacks, team activities, exercise facility, and on and on. They're coming out with new perks all the time. Management is very open as well--they ask your feedback a lot, which is rare. Work life balance is really encouraged here in my experience. Really really. The reputation is that jobs with unlimited PTO policies are the ones where you take the least PTO, but they do it right. Seriously, if you're lucky enough to get a job here take it.

Cons

I had to go read other reviews to get ideas about cons. It seems the middle management has a lot of leeway relative to other companies i've been at, which is both good and bad. Also, for data science they're just getting going, so they're behind the game there, but they're putting a lot of resources into it now. It's hard to imagine that the generosity of the company to its employees will be able to last through an IPO, but if anyone is going to do it, they will.

Thank you for your positive review, and your comments about our company! We will try to maintain the things we all love about Health Catalyst, while trying every day to improve those things that are still in need of improvement. We also recognize that there is a balance between avoiding micromanagement and a lack of common tools and accountabilities to understand how to work effectively. We will continue to work to find this balance. Thanks again!
