Pros

What can I say that hasn't already been said? This place has been amazing since day one. I am an out of state remote team member, and am pleasantly surprised at how they treat their team members, also called owners, whether local to Salt Lake City or not. On day one you are awarded vesting shares of the company, putting you directly in an ownership role. You are put through an extensive on-boarding process where you meet with an executive team member who explains the history, vision and culture of the company, in a small, personal setting with other recent new hires. They really do care about each and every one of us, and always try to do the best thing for the team member and the company when personal situations come up. The benefits are only rivaled by Silicon Valley giants, and not by much! They pay quite well and are always willing to give merit increases and promotions based on hard work and dedication. Their mission and purpose have true value to society, and who doesn't want to be a part of making history! If you're looking for a change of pace from normal corporate America, why don't you give Health Catalyst a long hard look, You won't regret it!

Cons

There are no cons that I have experienced in over 18 months of employment.

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.
