Excellent company and leadership, hope we can keep it that way - Product Development Health Catalyst Employee Review

Thank you for this detailed, thoughtful review, and for contributing to our important work in product development these past 3+ years. I'm encouraged to hear of the positives you're experiencing including the mission-orientation, the career opportunities, the autonomy, the compensation and your experience with your manager. I also appreciate your feedback on areas where we can improve, including not swinging the pendulum too far on centralization -- this is always a balancing act but I agree strongly that we need to achieve a balance here. I also appreciate the suggestion that we update our product-specific training content, which I know we're working on. Thank you also for expressing a willingness to be stretched and do more as we work to achieve profitability as a company. And I agree with your perspective regarding the benefits of each of us stretching a little more, rather than being more aggressive on headcount growth. This is a balance as well, where we also don't want to stretch too far that these positions aren't sustainable from a work/life balance perspective. But I agree with you regarding the importance of financial sustainability of positions. We'll talk in greater detail during today's all-team-member meeting about where we are as we work to finalize our 2020 operating plan, which will include some small incremental investments in a few specific areas and some small reductions in a few other specific areas. This will likely be the case every year as part of the planning process, as we've discussed multiple times over the years, as part of a robust annual planning process. In the cases of reductions, we'll strive to follow the Health Catalyst Way in rallying around any affected teammates to do all we can to help them land on their feet, either by being hired for a different, open position at Health Catalyst, or by finding a new position outside of Health Catalyst. Thank you again for your contributions to the company's product development and overall success. We'll try to not get in your way with too many centralized processes, and rather hope that you'll feel supported and appreciated in your important work. Best, Dan
