Forward Reviews

Forward brings together some of the best elements of SV startup talent / experience / mentality combined with a mission to radically fix the way we deliver healthcare. In contrast to the ever-so-incremental progress that's become the hallmark of healthcare provider "innovation", we've started from scratch with equal parts world-class technology, bold vision, rapid improvement / adaptation, and the scrappiness to make things work in the short term while not losing sight of what we'll need to succeed at scale. The culture of ownership here is incredibly refreshing -- it manifests itself in the level of transparency leadership provides to all levels of the organization, but also in the day-to-day expectation that ideas & solutions to some of our hardest problems come bottoms-up from across the company. Given the diversity of experience across engineering, ops, clinical, etc. it's a huge win to get those groups to collaborate constructively, which I think is happening incredibly well. I've never seen a healthcare organization adapt / iterate this quickly and I don't think it would be possible without the diversity of skillsets / perspectives and collectively assuming good intentions such that even when things break (which they do often), we're there to pick each other up, learn from it, and band together to provide world-class care for our members. I could go on, but frankly the combination of world-changing vision, culture, and talent level says it all for me. I consider myself genuinely lucky to be part of this team.

The progressive company culture is unlike any other company I've worked for - Leadership is totally transparent and genuinely cares about your personal development. It's inspiring to be around a team that is driven to utilize modern technology and provide exceptional service to members every day.
