Thanks for your contributions for more than 8 years to our success! Glad to hear you are happy about our organizational alignment and product strategy. Our business and technology strategy is communicated monthly in our All Team Member meetings when we review our Flywheel and in our product and client success showcases. We also have regular meetings and communications through our Operations department to ensure that alignment. For the smaller meetings, please let your direct manager know if you aren’t included in those and feel you should be. In regards to our emphasis on diversity and inclusion, a core part of our mission is building a strong culture that includes respect and love, which means that we will continue to invest and communicate about our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts regularly. We are proud of the progress we’ve made as a company, but also know we have a long way to go to truly reflect both the clients we serve and the patient populations they care for. It’s an essential part of our business and will remain so. We care about every team member at Health Catalyst, and strive to enable each team member’s high engagement so they can optimally contribute to a mission that aims to improve the health of every person on earth. Thank you again for your feedback!

Thank you for sharing your perspective. We appreciate your recognition of the strengths the company had before this year and the dedication of team members during challenging times. As we shape our 2026 strategy, we’re carefully evaluating how we allocate resources to ensure organizational success, identifying where to invest and how to utilize those resources most effectively, all guided by a clear and focused plan. Your feedback is helpful, and we will continue to communicate updates as progress is made. -Ben Albert

Pros

Great Talent & Culture: The people here are highly capable, collaborative, and committed to helping each other succeed. The partnership between onshore and offshore teams works well and is a real strength. There’s a culture of grit and stability that has helped the company navigate multiple major transitions over the years. Mission-Critical Engineering: The work involves complex data infrastructure that requires deep technical expertise. It can be demanding, but seeing these systems run successfully and support real-world operations is consistently rewarding.

Cons

Wage Compression and Retention Risk: Compensation for tenured and high-performing staff has not kept pace with the market for specialized data engineering and support leadership. In practice, tenure can feel undervalued or even penalized. This creates risk around losing institutional knowledge and operational continuity. Stagnant Career Progression: Contrary to stated expectations, strong performance ratings do not consistently translate into meaningful, market-aligned compensation growth. The process of how compensation is benchmarked lacks clarity in practice, obscuring how compensation decisions are made and what is required to advance.
