Pros

I had the privilege of working at HCAT during my first year when innovation, growth, and leadership created a dynamic and supportive work environment. I had to honor of starting my HCAT career and ending my HCAT career with some of the best supervisors within HCAT . The company was home to world-class team members who were passionate, collaborative, and talented. The office space is fantastic—modern, open, and designed to catch a glimpse of the mountain landscape from any area. Additionally, the benefits offered were competitive, and there was always room to learn and grow with numerous opportunities to expand your skills.

Cons

After my first 12-16 months the company outlook took a turn for the worse. Stock has dipped from $57 down to around $4 within three years. Once a leader in the industry HCAT is now plagued by poor decision-making, and a lack of direction. Morale has plummeted, and the company culture has shifted from one of collaboration to one of uncertainty and frustration. The C-shite leadership team seems disconnected from the reality on the ground, making decisions that undermine the efforts of hard-working employees. It's incredibly disappointing to see a company with so much potential fall apart due to ineffective C-suite leadership. Thankfully one of the biggest ineffective leaders has finally exited the company, just two years too late, thankfully he poached another ineffective leader to go with him.

Thank you for sharing your candid feedback. I truly appreciate your reflections on your time with Health Catalyst—especially your recognition of the incredible team members, strong leadership, and opportunities for growth that defined your early experience. Our team members are the foundation of our success, and I’m grateful that your experience included working with supervisors and colleagues who were supportive, passionate, and collaborative! I also recognize and find resonant many of the challenges you’ve outlined. We’ve experienced significant changes over the past few years, and while some of those transitions have been difficult, we remain focused on rebuilding momentum and strengthening our position for the future. Earning the right to continue operating as an independent, public company is a steep climb, but I believe we have the right plan, the right team, and a solid foundation as a profitable company to achieve that. Your feedback on leadership and promotions is important. Recognizing and rewarding impact is critical to our success, and we must continue to ensure that promotions are based on meaningful contributions that drive value for the business. Transparency and accountability in leadership decisions will remain a focus as we move forward. I appreciate your time, your insights, and the contributions you made during your tenure. Wishing you all the best in your next chapter. - Dan Burton

I’m glad to hear you found meaningful opportunities for growth at Health Catalyst. To address the uncertainty you felt, while we strive to consistently communicate the expectation that reductions may be part of every annual planning process, we can always improve. To alleviate uncertainty, we work to batch together reductions into only one companywide process, typically in the first quarter of each year. Thank you for your review and more than six years of contributions to our success. I wish you the best for you in your future endeavors. Best, Dan Burton
