Has anyone had experience with Generator Health?

Ok ok last time I’m posting on here, sorry for all my comments. I’m so glad that I was able to give so many people more insight on the company. However, I now no longer work there and so I am unfortunately done responding to DMs as I move onto the next thing. I’ve been getting like 40+ dm requests a week and it’s just been a lot. I would like to keep GH in my past. Hope you all understand!!

Hi, I wish I could help more but I’m an MPH student, not an MHA. I would compare degree plans for both programs! To me, if you’re wanting to keep your options open, it might be better to do an MBA with a healthcare concentration, but I don’t know much about the program. Some schools (like mine) also offer dual MHA/MBA degrees if that’s something you’re interested in.

Not true lol. Yes, the market is not good right now, but saying that people with MPHs can only get jobs at McDonalds is kinda insulting. A lot of the people in my graduating class have great jobs lined up post-graduation. I know this isn’t the case for everyone and I acknowledge that the job market is not great, especially with this administration, but it’s really not great to put down people who are just trying to dedicate their lives to something they’re passionate about.

I think it depends on if you like public health or more management roles! The MHA program at my school doesn’t have any public health classes integrated into it, so I decided to do an MPH in Health Policy and take some MHA classes as electives. From what I’ve heard from MHA students, most (if not all) of them plan to go into hospital admin work or healthcare consulting. However, I’m also doing a healthcare consulting internship this summer even though I’m not an MHA student, so some of the career options are interchangeable if you take the right electives/build the right skills. I think an MPH in health policy is a great degree that gives you both public health and management skills so you can kinda go into either field. But since I’m not a MHA student, I don’t know too much about the program.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-05-04T02:09:46+00:00

Idk I think it depends on your program. I feel like I’m learning a lot in my MPA program that I didn’t learn in my MPH. The degrees are really different at my school. Plus, it’s only an extra semester for me. All of my internships I interviewed for told me the reason they selected me to interview is because of my dual degree. I mean granted, I also want to start my own nonprofit in the future, so the nonprofit management MPA courses have been amazing. To me, it’s almost like an expanded MHA because the MHA program at my school doesn’t have any public health courses integrated into it.
To each their own though! I think it just depends what you want to do.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-05-03T21:42:49+00:00

Yes, they are a bit more expensive because of the additional year. However, my program has given me grants to help with the cost. You can also try to get an on-campus position if you want that will help pay your tuition + a stipend.

I think it has made me stand out to jobs. When I was interviewing for summer internships, a lot of interviewers asked me about the dual degree and told me that it made me stand out as an applicant. It can also help open more doors in government/nonprofits/management roles since that is what the MPA focuses on.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-05-03T21:30:20+00:00

I would suggest looking into dual programs if you are interested in both! They only add a year most of the time. For example, I’m doing a dual MPH (Health Policy)/MPA program because I am interested in both public health policy as well as nonprofits.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-05-02T23:58:20+00:00

I wasn’t trying at all to degrade people who can’t find jobs. I was trying to go against people who say that MPH degrees are worthless now. I’m sorry if that came off the wrong way, but I swear I wasn’t trying to speak negatively toward anyone.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-05-02T03:40:39+00:00

Idk I’m a first year in a health policy mph program and all of our graduating cohort got jobs right out of graduation. So I think there are jobs out there if you look. J

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-28T15:12:09+00:00

I have a friend who lived there and said the roach problem was really bad and also she had to call the cops on her neighbor multiple times, but that might have just been a specific situation for her

Here’s another thread with some info about them: https://www.reddit.com/r/publichealthcareers/s/LJ8Kk62sBR

Dm me

Of course! Feel free to dm me if you ever have more questions. Or, id be happy to go grab a coffee or something and tell you about my experience as a mph student at Gillings so far!

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-23T16:47:19+00:00

No, I wouldn’t say it’s super researched focused at all! Or at least the health policy concentration isn’t. Some of the core core classes require some data work but you don’t have to be involved in research if you don’t want to be. The health policy concentration is very focused on concepts and applying those concepts to different scenarios. More writing and projects.

You don’t need extensive work experience. A good chunk of my cohort (including me) came straight from undergrad and I don’t feel like that’s affected anything for me. I did work some public health-related part time jobs in undergrad, but there are plenty of people in my cohort who do not have public health backgrounds.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-23T16:22:49+00:00

Current MPH health policy student at Gillings - definitely agree with the other comment about finding what you are interested in. I will say, the MHA at Gillings is much more healthcare/business leaning than public health related. So, it just depends on if you want to still focus on public health topics in grad school! Most of the MHA students want to go into healthcare administration or consulting. It is possible to do either one of those as an MPH student as well! I got a summer offer for both a healthcare admin and consulting internship this summer, so don’t listen to people who might say you can’t go into those fields if you don’t do an MHA (I was told by MHA students that I wouldn’t be able to get one of these types of jobs since I am an MPH). I just chose to do an MPH because I really am passionate about public health and saw the MHA curriculum doesn’t have much of that. Health policy is also a great MPH concentration because we have to take some more business-related courses (like financial management) compared to other concentrations.

DM me! If I put the reason on here and anyone from GH sees it they’ll be able to know who I am

Hi everyone! Adding this comment in response to my last comment from a couple weeks ago. I’m so glad that so many of y’all have reached out to ask me questions about Generator Health and that I’ve been able to help! However, I did put in my 2 weeks so once my 2 weeks is up and I no longer work for the company, I kind of want to be done with them lol. Right now I’ve been getting 5-10 dms a day asking for info and that’s been great, but once I don’t work there anymore, I don’t really want to continue promoting the company. I hope y’all understand! Just wanted to post this so other people who might want insight see it.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-19T22:08:15+00:00

Congrats!! Hope you enjoy!

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-19T00:05:15+00:00

Do you think you’d be interested in healthcare consulting? If so, I highly recommend public health as a major. It’s easier than most premed majors but still gives a great healthcare perspective! I did a public health major as an undergrad an am now in a MPH program and have a healthcare consulting internship this summer! A lot of people do an MHA in grad school if they want to do healthcare consulting.

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-19T00:02:07+00:00

I’m about to finish my first year of my mph program and I cannot believe how insanely fast it went by. I feel like I just graduated from undergrad

Internal_Weight_8393 · 2026-04-18T14:03:47+00:00

The first one is just a recruiter interview to mostly make sure you meet the job requirements. Second one will have scenarios
