An innovative company with great benefits and a terrific culture and caring executive leadership

Pros

Executive team and management are accessible and reflect the values and mission of the company. Great benefits and work/life balance values. Base pay is excellent and good opportunities for bonus pay and ownership stake in the company

Cons

The company emphasizes collaboration and communication within and amongst teams and while I enjoy working in that kind of environment, it is not always a great fit for some people.

Thank you very much for your constructive thoughts on how we can continue to improve. As a management team, our goal is to do everything we can to embody the values that got us to this point, and do our best to live up to the trust our fellow team member/owners place in us when they show up to work every day, give everyone their best, and make Catalyst the best it can be.

Best company I've worked for

Technical director
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Work-life balance, ability to telecommute, friendly coworkers, competitive pay, opportunity for every employee to own stock. The PTO policy is basically to take what you need either for sick or vacation time, and they trust employees to not abuse it. The company values transparency and innovation, which fosters an open environment where I feel like my opinion matters and I can contribute when I see areas for improvement.

Cons

Most positions require some travel, but I feel that this is offset by the ability to work from home periodically. Desperately need standardization around several processes such as project management and version control of analytic applications-- too many people are doing things in different ways.

Thank you for your thoughts/suggestions. We also see the need for standardization and project management (in appropriate forms) as being vital to our ability to scale the business. Thanks again.

Most people don't believe my description of Health Catalyst

Pros

There are on paper things that everyone looks for: ~20 company holidays, unlimited PTO, highly competitive salary, stand up desks, on site gym, plenty of snackage, yada yada. All fantastic. But I think what sets Health Catalyst apart is how they treat and motivate employees. They give you ownership, and they trust you to make decisions like an owner. You feel empowered and respected and appreciated. For those reasons alone, I would stay here even if offered significantly more money at a different company. It's hard to put a number on being valued.

Cons

Because of the fast pace of growth and sense of ownership, it feels like I always have several highly important things to do. Even though we are given plenty of opportunity to take PTO and keep a work life balance, it is hard to do so when you know you have a lot of work to do. I find myself wanting to work at night, or over the weekend, to finish up one more thing, or provide value here or there. Its great to work for a engaging company, but hard to know when to stop when you know you'll be appreciated for the extra work. Is this even a con...?

I know how you feel. I have found myself on more than one occasion having to step back and "rebalance". Whether its putting off something I planned to do over the weekend to Monday in favor of family stuff (or just reading), or making an effort to turn off my phone when I'm on vacation, we all need time to recharge. A very wise man once shared with me, "since there really is no good time to take vacation, that essentially means ANYTIME is a good time to take vacation". Obviously we all need to use our judgment here, :) but the point is we should all make our own personal recharging time an important priority. I just finished working 60-70 hour weeks getting our series D completed (as did many others), and now I'll take some time to recharge and rebalance. I, like many of you, am just grateful I work at a company where that approach isn't only ok, its expected. We spike when we need to, but we also balance with downtime. Thanks! Sorry about the novel on this one.
