- Rory

What attracted you to work at your company? How did you know it would be a good fit?: Arcadia was a known name in the healthcare managed services space, especially in the Northeast. An analyst role was available that was closely aligned with my previous position, and I reached out to folks in my network who had worked or were working at Arcadia. After learning about the culture and the potential, I knew Arcadia was a place where I could grow and make a direct impact on both my career and the success of a growing company.
What are you responsible for in your current role?: The success of our data teams is my greatest responsibility, although Arcadia hasn't lost its startup charm. The company transitioned to a software based analytics platform about a year after I joined, and the collaboration across teams, functions and departments makes the overall success of Arcadia apparent as a shared effort.
What are you working on right now that excites or inspires you?: We are continuing to evolve and find better ways to solve harder problems. Data can be as simple or as complex as you make it, but our specialized teams are diving head first into complexity, from partnering with our clients to drive value from dark data, to self educating ourselves to become subject matter experts in our industry. Finding ways to solve operational challenges by utilizing the tools and resourcing available allows us to afford more time to invest in our growth and upskilling of members of our team. This includes expanding internal training on industry standard tools and establishing cross-functional teams to execute on problems instead of symptoms.
What do you value most about your company’s or team’s culture? What sets it apart from other places you’ve worked?: Arcadians are the most passionate, intelligent, and dedicated group of individuals I've had the pleasure of working with. Arcadians come from all educational and cultural backgrounds, and we execute on a common goal: to improve healthcare. We are always one-upping ourselves, but never one-upping each other. We continue to train and be trained each successive year, as the industry demands we remain dynamic. Arcadia supports and encourages individuals to pursue growth and achievement, and to take advantage of an individual's drive to progress themselves, their teams and their clients.
What’s one thing you would want a candidate to know about what it’s like to work at your company?: We're people people! Arcadians love to connect and share common interests, and to build friendships and support systems. Even before COVID forced most of the world to integrate home and work life, Arcadians have always felt more cohesive and communal than the typical 9-5. One's own engagement is always at the discretion of the individual, but I've gained mentors, mentees, friends, and a huge network of industry professionals in my time at Arcadia.
How has your company shown appreciation for your work? What kinds of employee achievements are recognized?: Arcadia recognizes a strong ethic and personal conviction. I have always felt supported in my personal and professional growth in my career at Arcadia, and I have in turn accomplished a number of successful milestones and achievements on behalf of Arcadia and in the support of our clients. Arcadia continues to invest in their employees by offering tooling, training, and regular performance and compensation reviews. I am the humble recipient of more than one Arc Award: honorable recognitions, voted on by the collective Arcadian employee body for Arcadians who go above and beyond in many ways such as data chops, spirit and innovation.
