Our pay is still lagging.
I am concerned about our acquisitions. While we say we acquire companies that have the same values as we do, many of the teammates who have joined via recent acquisitions do not demonstrate these behaviors during their day-to-day work. They are aggressive about their product, not the company's mission. Instead of partnering for improvement, I've observed many speaking ill of others and refusing to listen, seek mutual purpose, or adapt to the new company they are now a part of. They demand things be adapted for them, and appear unwilling to integrate into the organization. They pretend they are, and say the right things when the right level of leadership is present, but behave differently in other meetings. This isn't to say Health Catalyst doesn't need to listen and learn from acquisitions, grow and adapt, but often, there are solid, data-informed reasons we do things the way we do. I've seen no interest from those recently acquired to seek to understand these things. Instead, they actively discount others' expertise and tell us why we need to do things the way they want us to do them.
I also worry about our desire to aggressively grow. In many of the conversations and meetings I am involved in, the desire to grow appears to be more important than being a catalyst for improvement. The tone of conversations has changed, with many focused only on growth, not the unique benefit we bring to our clients and the patients they serve.
