Vantaggi

The talent is some of the best in the valley, most of the team is really fun, there are office dogs and everyone who comes here chose HealthTap because of the mission and potential of the product. If you can last at least a year here, you'll walk away with a lot of experience that's valuable to any of the other, saner startups and tech companies in Silicon Valley.

Svantaggi

Leadership is terrible. The maniacal narcissism and hypocrisy at the top (preaching empathy, authenticity, humility, transparency, compassion, doing good in the world and saving lives at scale) poisons the company culture. Managers are really great, but there's not much they can do when senior management calls all the shots. Micromanagement restricts employees from doing their jobs effectively because leadership refuses to listen to employees. Transparency is a lie (every "value" on their doors is false), salaries are abysmal and far below a living wage ($36K gets you nowhere) and you are expected to devote 12–14 hours of your day PLUS weekends to a thankless job. You'll get work calls and texts at night and on weekends. The leadership team posts lies on Glassdoor. All those 5-star ratings? False. Team Meetings are an opportunity to get yelled at for not hitting unrealistic targets, weekly Town Hall at 5:30pm on Fridays means you leave work at 7, the focus on speed and not quality results in a lot of things breaking everywhere (which is unacceptable when you're dealing in healthcare) and hardly anyone stays over a year or so because there is no career growth. Good luck getting promoted and don't expect your salary to ever hit market value but feel free to stick around if you want to be underpaid by at least $25K and enjoy being a weekly/daily verbal punching bag.

Thanks for your interest in HealthTap, helping millions live healthier, happier, longer lives. We want you to have an accurate picture of what it's like to work here, and one that’s based on data and facts (rather than the misleading assertions above). We now use a data-based approach to make sure our compensation is market competitive for companies at our stage of growth, and our benefits package is generous and comprehensive, with valuable stock options, fully funded healthcare (medical as well as dental and vision), subsidized gym memberships, catered meals (lunch and dinner), a 401K plan, weekly in-office massages, healthy snacks, and much more. We don't have set hours, but our core business hours are Monday through Friday 9:30 - 6:30, and working late or on weekends is not required. We do recognize and reward employees who choose to “walk the extra mile” and voluntarily elect to work beyond the core hours, but it’s not mandated. At HealthTap we passionately believe that it’s all about the output and the measurable results, not about the input. We encourage our employees to accomplish the targets and goals they’ve willingly taken on themselves, so they don’t feel they need to work beyond business hours. This is why we will continue to foster a healthy sense of urgency that helps our team focus on what matters to deliver the desired results that are changing the world for the better. We regularly promote employees from within our organization, providing leadership opportunities to employees across the board, and in the past year we promoted many personal contributors and junior mangers into management and senior management roles. We have a well celebrated policy that allows every employee in the company to step up and offer herself or himself for leadership roles, and when they have, we provided them in each and every instance, with the opportunity to do so. Once in leadership roles, employees receive significant leeway in how they choose to accomplish their goals, the opportunity to ask for help, and even if they feel that it’s challenging to accomplish what they took on themselves willingly, they receive support from the senior leadership team. Two of our company values are trust and transparency. We take these to heart. Each week we host an all-hands meeting where any question about the company is welcome, and where we share confidential information with our team, to keep everyone informed of our progress on partnerships, products, and important developments. At our weekly team meetings we share data across the company and with all teams and we use these meetings to calibrate, provide feedback, and to offer help to one another to accomplish our goals. We do this so that we are all on the same page, and understand where we stand in relation to where we want to be. We believe it keeps us motivated about our shared goals. We also highly respect one another and have a strong culture of teamwork and collaboration. We do provide feedback and help each other grow and improve but we don’t yell on each other. After years of serving hundreds of millions of people in 174 countries, we’ve served users many times and learned that in Healthcare people value above all three things: Quality, Speed, and Compassion. To do so, we always emphasize all these three when we build products and services and feel that to fulfil our mission and server our users needs and wants we cannot compromise on any of them. You're invited to visit HealthTap to speak with our employees directly and experience our culture and values first hand – please contact us and we’ll arrange a visit at your convenience. Real people and tangible experiences are the best representation of who we really are.

Great product, lots of interesting deals in the works that will propel the company forward. Current leadership seems to have a good grasp on things. Pay is good, wlb is better than most.

Svantaggi

There could be more HR initiatives, but that can also be a pro at times.

Vantaggi

In my role, I work one on one with the CEO. I want to stress what a inspirational leader he is. It is a lot of hard work, but whenever I feel overwhelmed, Ron is supportive helping me strike a good work/life balance. He has an 'open-door' policy that many CEOs wouldn't even consider, where any employee can talk to him about issues they are having, which is great and truly lives up to the openness and transparency value. The people I work with are amazing, and I count many of then as close friends. Being surrounded by such positive energy and brilliant people from such diverse backgrounds makes me excited to come to work everyday. I enjoy spending time with them in the office, but also love our excursions to Santa Cruz to surf or going on coffee runs. We have cool perks and a fun culture. Part of my job is planning company events like picnics (we have the best griller!) and company movie nights. We also always have a plethora of yummy and healthy snacks. One of my favorite perks is the subsidized gym membership. It's great to take a break to go work out and come back to the office feeling energized.

Svantaggi

-Not enough office space...we are constantly having to conduct interviews outside or taking calls in the hallway. -Good communication can often be an issue in a fast-paced environment. -Personally, I'm not a fan of the open office space. I find that I often get distracted.
