Pros

I have almost always felt like the company has erred on the side of doing what is best for me. Each team I have worked with has had the autonomy to largely do things the way we thought was best. I don't speak with Dan face-to-face often - but when I do I always walk away feeling grateful he is at the helm. I believe 100% he puts team members (employees) first. I have never felt micromanaged. I feel trusted.

Cons

Implementation of new technologies feels very slow. The time between development and when a user actually has the product in front of them also feels very long. This can be discouraging.

Thank you for sharing this feedback with me, and thank you for your kind words. I'm heartened to hear that our interactions have been positive and that you sense a strong commitment to team members. That is absolutely how I feel. I also appreciate your perspective regarding the implementation of our technology feeling slow and long -- that this can be discouraging. I hope that we can tighten this timeline in the near future, and this time-to-value benefit will be a significant focus for us as we think about our R&D investments going into the 2020 planning cycle. We've come a long way in this regard, but there is still much room for improvement. Finally, thank you for the >5 years you've spent contributing to our company's success. I'm confident that you've added deep and significant value during your tenure, and for that I express to you my deep appreciation and gratitude. And I hope Health Catalyst will prove to be so hard to leave that you'll choose to continue to stay for the next 5+ years! Best, Dan

Pros

Fully engaged senior leadership team. Generous employee benefits and a desire to make the employment experience a good one. Strong focus on employee retention. The work the company does is meaningful.

Cons

Constant reorganization, it never seems to settle. It's being done for the good of clients and company, but it makes finding a groove hard. Updates communicated on the company's progress or status seem to be too technical. It's hard to determine what it really means sometimes. It's hard to determine how I, as a team member, are directly impacted.

Thank you for this feedback, and thank you for the contributions you've made for over 3 years, to the company's mission and growth and success. I agree with you that there has been a great deal of growth, and also a great deal of change, including several reorganizations during that time. We'll talk more about that today in our all team member meeting. One way we're trying to manage the need to make growth-related organizational changes, with the need for the dust to settle, is to make an organizational review part of our annual planning process, and try to avoid any major organizational updates or changes other than in the annual planning cycle. That will hopefully enable us to be settled in for most of each year, and then be mentally ready once a year to step back (which, because of our significant growth as a company, is an important step to take each year) and consider how we are organized. We'll also work on helping to connect our day-to-day work with the big picture and the overall strategy of the company. If you have any more ideas of how we could do this more effectively, I'd welcome the chance to visit 1:1 with you. Just reach out to Jenn Howard and we can set up some time to visit. Best, Dan
