Pros

- None. Nada. Zilch. - If you’re working in the Atlanta office, “Optics” is a real thing. You’re either in the office working or assumed to be at home not working.

Cons

- The most poorly managed company I have ever worked for. It starts from the top (as most poorly run company’s do) and permeates its way all the way to the entry level employees. - CEO’s revenue expectations did not resemble anything close to reality. 2023 Forecast was built off of a flash in a pan fiscal year (COVID), by an employee who left the company 2 months into 2023 - Their value proposition is to serve the underserved (rural health hospitals). Unfortunately, rural health hospitals are dying off much like the dinosaurs, which leaves Azalea Health having to continuously scramble for Millions of dollars in debt financing. $78 Million to be exact. - Azalea Health is debt financed as opposed to VC funded because no VC firm on the planet believes in the company is capable of any nominal growth. Let that sink in. - Cliquey and toxic are the words I would use to describe Azalea’s culture. You will always feel like you’re on the outside looking in, and unless you went to Georgia Southern or GCSU, you’re right. - CEO wanted to build an “in-office sales culture” (Think Wolf of Wall Street), and failed spectacularly. I watched more sales people quit in my 9 months there, than I’ve seen total in my 10 years working in the corporate world.

Pros

Over the last five years at Azalea, I’ve had the opportunity to grow both technically and professionally while working on meaningful healthcare technology. One of the biggest positives has been the level of ownership and trust given to employees who are willing to step up, solve problems, and drive initiatives forward. Azalea provides opportunities to work across teams and gain exposure to areas like infrastructure, security, compliance, operations, and product delivery. The work can be challenging, but it is also impactful, especially knowing that the systems we support play a role in helping healthcare organizations serve their patients. I’ve also appreciated working with dedicated people who care about doing the right thing for customers and who are willing to collaborate when priorities are complex or urgent. For someone who wants to learn, take initiative, and have a visible impact, Azalea can provide a lot of opportunity.

Cons

The company moves quickly, and even with 250+ employees, Azalea can still feel like it operates at the speed of a smaller business. That pace creates opportunity, but it can also require flexibility and extra time, especially in infrastructure or operations roles where after-hours and weekend work may be needed for maintenance, upgrades, or critical support. Insurance options are affordable at a national scale, but the higher deductibles are something employees should factor into their planning.
