Thank you for your review and your feedback. I read and reread your review, and we have been working to strengthen and reinforce principles of transparency, love and respect for every team member over the past six months, even as we are required to make some important changes in order to continue to earn the right to be an independent, mission-focused company moving forward. I'm grateful to see much progress made, and a reacceleration beginning in our growth and in our profitability progress as well. We have also striven to follow the Health Catalyst Way even as we've needed to streamline our cost structure, but use many levers before layoffs in order to achieve that cost structure. I'm grateful for the team member positions that have been preserved as a result of this strategy, even though it took more time than a more layoff-heavy approach would have taken. I'm also feeling meaningfully optimistic about our future as a company, and am excited for a strong 2023. I hope that these positive changes and signals will be persuasive enough for you to choose to stay with Health Catalyst, and I recognize that it is our responsibility as leaders to provide a compelling place for team members to want to work and to want to stay. I appreciate your more than six years of contributions to Health Catalyst! Best, Dan

Pros

Health Catalyst has the best culture of any company for which I have worked. Dan Burton, the CEO, is a rare leader who consistently emphasizes timeless principles--including respect for and the empowerment of every team member to be fellow owners of the company's mission--to improve healthcare for everyone. He walks the talk and sets the example for everyone else. My business unit, its leaders, my manager, and my teammates are the best I've ever had the pleasure of working with in a career that spans decades and multiple organizations, large and small.

Cons

Some on the executive team and in middle management do not always follow the company principles as closely as our CEO does. Also, our company's products have been established as independent technologies with largely separate product roadmaps, which has led to a lack of intra-company collaboration and the frequent sub-optimization of products and processes in redundant, less-scalable silos.

Thank you for your review, your feedback, your nine years of contributions to Health Catalyst's growth and success, and for the kind words you shared directed towards me. I also really appreciate and agree with your feedback that we need to break down silos and become more integrated and simple and consistent. We are working to make this happen, as simplifying our organization is tied directly to focusing and streamlining which are necessary strategies for our future. Thank you again for your many contributions to our growth and success over the past decade! Best, Dan

Thank you for your feedback and for your contributions to our company's success in the area of software engineering. We have needed, as thousands of other technology and healthcare technology & services companies, have needed to make meaningful changes in response to our end market conditions. We've appreciated data and inputs from many different sources, including our team members and clients, as we've made these decisions and changes, and they have not been easy and have required balance and judgment. But I'm grateful to be where we are, and I'm optimistic for a strong 2023 as we continue to see growth and profitability progress. I'm grateful to be your teammate on this journey. Best, Dan
