Positive Reviews From Waystar Employees

  • What are some of the best things about your team?
    They seemed like they cared about each other, along with the new people, but they really don't care about the new people. It was like high school and sad.
  • What are some of the best things about your team?
    Everyone tried hard at their job even though they are completely burnt out.
  • What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
    Work from home, familiarity with my peers

Constructive Feedback From Waystar Employees

  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Learning what it means to be professional. Learning to practice discretion, empathy, kindness, and not allow managers to berate the people under them and treat them in an abusive manner.
  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Accountability, transparency, honesty, less nepotistic
  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    Very poor pay and constant run around with HR about the issue. Have reached out to manager, then manager reached out to his manager. Waystar likes to say they review the market, but that is total lip service.
