I have been with Press Ganey for a number of years, and have recently been promoted to a new job title. So far, the new position seems both challenging and rewarding, and I enjoy taking on these new responsibilities. The benefits package you receive on day one starting here is almost unheard of in any other company. Press Ganey puts a great emphasis on work/life balance, and I stand firm with their mission statement to reduce patient suffering.
Cons
The only minor complaint I would have is the salary. I personally feel that I should be compensated just a bit more for the amount of work and responsibilities I have undertaken, but it is not an unreasonable compensation.

Cons
Upward mobility isn't always aligned perfectly for some roles
If you want to get your hands dirty with healthcare policy or hospital system strategy, the Consulting and Advisory teams do some legitimately interesting work. The data access is also a massive plus—if you’re a Data Scientist, you won’t be hurting for data to work with.
Cons
Instability is the Norm: Constant, unexplained layoffs have created a pretty paranoid atmosphere. Management doesn’t handle change well, and people are always looking over their shoulders.
Frankenstein Tech Stack: The company prefers buying new companies over fixing the ones they already own. This leaves you with a core product that's basically held together by duct tape and technical debt. Sales often sells a "dream" that the current tech just can't actually do.
Broken Integration: There’s zero effort to actually merge the cultures or systems of the companies they buy. It’s just a revolving door of new names and fragmented processes.
Management Deflection: When things go south, leadership tends to point fingers at junior staff or "reorganize" rather than taking any responsibility.
The "Bonus" Trap: Don't count on your full package. Bonuses are rarely funded above 70% (it's often less), which effectively feels like a hidden pay cut.
