Lots of change and growth

Pros

Amazing cultural values, good people, great leadership, lots of growth which equals lots of opportunities. Very exciting to be a part of enormous growth. Benefits are wonderful, leadership is transparent and truly helps each of us feel like owners.

Cons

Some of the department managers do not hold the same core values (smart, humble, hard-working, continuous learner) that leadership deems important in its employees. This can be a struggle and counterproductive for growth. This creates continuous road blocks that can prevent employees from really shining in their roles and having the opportunities to do/try new things. Negativity and pessimism breed a lack of productivity and can stunt individual and organizational growth at a time when we need it most.

Thank you for this feedback and review, I appreciate it. I'm glad to hear of the positive elements of your experience including the resonance of our values, and the growth of the company which provides growth opportunities as well. Thank you also for highlighting that we need to be vigilant in ensuring consistency at every level in the company. The manager 360-degree feedback process will help in this regard, and I will spend several hours reviewing every people manager's feedback. We will work with every servant-leader at Health Catalyst to apply this 360-degree feedback to reinforce what is working well, and then to strive for improvement where this is needed. Thank you again! Dan

Pros

When I came over to Health Catalyst it was culture shock in the best possible way. From the very top to bottom most everyone at the company lives by the Health Catalyst values. In my experience, this company truly values it's team members and the leadership does their very best to culturally be female forward and progressive in recognizing and addressing the workplace and outside challenges minority groups are facing in today's world. Our CEO does not shy away from taking a clear stance on what he feels is the right and that's much appreciated. Health Catalyst promotes a culture of kindness, transparency, remaining humble, and assuming positive intent. And I've personally witnessed the leadership team doing everything they can to keep promises and stand by their word while maintaining the company's mission. There's never been more of a need for the work Health Catalyst does and I believe it truly makes a difference in our healthcare system. I consider myself fortunate to be a part of it.

Cons

The company is growing at an inorganic rate and while that's not a bad thing, it can certainly present challenges and growing pains. Achieving the mission can sometimes come with shared sacrifice.

Thank you for your review and feedback, and for choosing to be a servant-leader at Health Catalyst. I appreciate all that you shared that has been positive about your experience, and recognize there is a great deal to live up to, and that there are no shortcuts here. I also appreciate your perspective of the importance of sharing and receiving constructive feedback so that we can work to continously improve. We're working to build this capability into the fabric of the company, including through annual performance review processes for servant-leaders and for every team member. But we also feel it is important to maintain a healthy ratio of positive to constructive feedback -- what we share in our leadership training is a goal of a 7 to 1 ratio of positive to constructive feedback, which is data-informed. Some of the data that informs this perspective comes from the Gallup organization -- that accentuating and enabling team members to utilize their strengths is far more effective than having them focus inordinantly on fixing areas where they might be weak. There is a balance in all things, and self-awareness is critical, but I did want to share that there is a rationale and a great deal of data and thought that informs our bias towards positivity and a focus on reinforcing strengths. Thank you for all your work at Health Catalyst as a servant-leader. Best, Dan
