Our People

We have the smartest, most ambitious, most driven employees, who genuinely enjoy each other.  We work tenaciously, we enjoy what we do, and we are redefining the concept of friendships at work.  Wait, fun at work?  Yep, it's possible.

Our Culture

We are teachers and learners who work tenaciously as a team to achieve true customer success. We have a culture of candor, and an innate obsession to alleviate the work and stress of our clients.

Our Work

We are creating easy-to-use, ultra-powerful, network-enabled tools that allow medical professionals to do what they do best – treat patients.  Our work matters; both to us, and to the nation.  Our work is challenging and inspiring, and scratches our 'do-good' itch.

Our Perks

We provide a collaborative workspace for humans (and often their canine companions), including frequent company meetings, wellness programs, competitive compensation, generous PTO, sabbaticals, a cool environment, and way more awesomeness.

Corporate Citizenship

Corporate Responsibility has been baked into our DNA from the start. Here at athenahealth, we’ve always been focused on our health care providers, helping them do well by doing the right thing.

Our Corporate Responsibility program, athenaGives, goes above and beyond, working to improve the health of underserved, uninsured, and/or at-risk populations. We offer cash grants to innovative health nonprofits working in our local communities, support local nonprofits at which employees donate time, and maximize our social impact by leveraging our network enabled services beyond the traditional client base. We’re working across our networks and in our local communities to transform healthcare.

We our proud of our culture: a place where people genuinely enjoy the company of their colleagues, and where they are inspired to be a better version of themselves everyday. We have too many “top workplace” awards to list (but, we'll try).

We believe in face time with leaders: frequent company meetings (live streamed to every office), regular conversations with the CEO, lunch dates with the executive team, beers with the senior leaders, and more

We invest in our people: through development opportunities, learning, sabbaticals, perks, community groups, activities, employee resource groups, digital display screens, an employee experience team, and more

We actually like each other: we have friends at work, we love our company events, our hallmark “athen-o-ween” gives us the opportunity to dress up and show off our children at work, and it's normal to see athenistas having conversations (personal and professional) at our barista station, when volunteering, and even at our desks

We foster entrepreneurship: it’s how we were founded and how we grow; we value ideas and innovation from our employees
