Incredible company to work for, but compensation is severely lacking

Pros

- HCAT is focused on hiring smart, hard-working, and humble employees, and they are successful in doing so. Without fail, every person within the company that I have worked/interacted with has been incredibly kind and enjoyable to be around. - The commitment to work-life balance is at the forefront of company culture. It is expected for employees to take pride in their work and go above and beyond at times when needed. This has led to me working weekends and late hours on multiple occasions, but is made up for by the ease of taking time off when you really need it. - My manager has been incredible. Our twice-monthly 1:1's consist of catching up on our personal lives as much as it is talking about work. They are always cognizant of any help/ accommodations I may need and goes above and beyond to do so.

Cons

- We are behind on technology. While many other companies of the same size and scale have already moved over to Snowflake/AWS, we are still stuck on older technology that has serious performance implications for our clients. There has been talk of moving to Snowflake for 2+ years, and hopefully we will be able to make that transition soon. - The pay, which I will mention in great detail below.

Thank you for your review and feedback, I appreciate it. And I appreciate you sharing your personal experience with regards to your compensation situation. I wonder if we didn't quite get the job match correct. I'd be happy to visit with you 1:1 and I know that Linda Llewelyn our Chief People Officer would also be happy to visit with you 1:1. If you're open to this, I'll look forward to our visit, and we'll see what we can do to be as competitive as possible on compensation -- that is certainly our objective with every team member in every position -- to pay at- or above-market. I'm also grateful for the contributions of the Data BU in helping us become stronger and stronger in our technology offerings and capabilities, with the first implementations leveraging Snowflake technology heavily including contributions from the Data BU. We're excited to add even more multi-tenant, scalable capabilities to the data platform in 2022 and 2023, and we'll keep investing meaningfully in R&D to enable this to occur. Thank you again for your contributions and your feedback! Best, Dan

Pros

The Executive Team genuinely cares about their employees, both at work and as people. We have a wonderful mission and core values.

Cons

I think we are seeing some of the negative effects of focusing on positive EBITDA rather than solely on growth. Projects are not as well resourced as they need to be to succeed.

Thank you for your review and feedback, and I'm grateful that you feel the care and concern that leaders feel for each team member at Health Catalyst. Thank you also for your feedback of the challenges of getting to profitability. This is definitely a challenging achievement to reach, and is one reason most startups never reach profitability. It does require sacrifice and judgment and discipline, no question. I'm really proud of the company's achievement of positive adjusted EBITDA in Q1 and Q2 of 2022, and am excited for us to achieve full-year positive Adjusted EBITDA in 2023. This is a strong signal of the sustainability of our company's business model. I also appreciate your feedback around the challenges of integrating multiple acquisitions. I do believe that we'll have some time over the coming months to continue to focus on great integration, while public and private market valuation expectations come into closer alignment with one another. We'll strive to continue to set a very high bar before pursuing an acquisition moving forward. Thanks again for your feedback! Best, Dan
