Process
The interview took place in 2021.
I had three interview slots because HR twice forgot about our meeting. I should have refused after the first one, or at least after the second, but I thought, "It's Epic Games. I should try."
On the interview, I met the HR with a bored, tired face, like: "Well, you asked."
Obviously, they had already chosen the candidate or didn't consider my candidacy at all, and HR came only because of their failures with meetings.
The only positive thing was receiving a letter of rejection. However, after such an interview, I didn't expect anything else, and I myself would have agreed with them.
Questions
It was an interview with standard questions, such as:
- Tell me about yourself?

Epic Games Work Experiences
- 3.0People are great, but the company leadership structure is messyRelease Manager • Former EmployeeSeattle, Washington, United StatesAugust 26, 2024Pros: Great health coverage for full-time employees.Cons: A lot of legacy processes and information, and new ideas, aren't taken well.
- 1.0A meat grinder with a bully cultureRelease Manager • Former EmployeeCary, North Carolina, United StatesJanuary 12, 2021Pros: Benefits are okay, and there are some genuinely amazing people who work there.Cons: Epic Games is the sort of company that looks great if you listen to upper management. They are proponents of rewarding employees and offering good benefits, but underneath it's a meat grinder that enables bullying and abusive behavior. I once worked 30 days straight on crunch, and when I requested time off, I was told it would have to wait because there was too much work to do. The same manager once yelled in my face – the only time I've felt physically threatened in a professional environment. This same manager was allowed to consistently bully me even after I asked HR to intervene. There are a lot of great people who work at Epic, but unfortunately, there's an unchecked culture of bullying and exploitation which can make working there a traumatizing experience. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say I have slight PTSD from working there.
