Thank you for your review and for your feedback, including your kind words -- I appreciate your vote of confidence. I also appreciate your feedback on the topic of diversity. I want to emphasize that we continue to strive to follow timeless principles in our approach to this topic as with all other topics and areas. This includes a focus on ensuring that when we post a new position we strive to attract as broad and diverse a pool of talented individuals as possible into the applicant pool. Then, as we go through the interview process for a position, we involve an interview team and we approach the interviews in a consistent manner, all with the objective of extending an offer to the most qualified candidate. We will continue to follow these principles and practices moving forward, with a desire for every team member at Health Catalyst to feel that they have a bright future ahead of them and that they are highly engaged in doing their best work. This includes male and female team members, white team members and team members of color, remote team members and team members who work near our offices, team members of all religious backgrounds, sexual orientations, and those coming from a diversity of other backgrounds and experiences. I care about every team member's experience, and we will work hard every day to try to continuously improve that experience. We are striving to continue to apply principles in our pursuit of excellence and engagement. Best, Dan

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.
