Software Developer Interview Experience - Madison, Wisconsin
Process
There was a campus interview, followed by a skills assessment test. Nothing too hard.
Then they invited me for an on-site interview a few weeks later and covered all the expenses.
The actual interview process started in the morning with a site tour and a software demo, after which there were the individual 1-1 interviews.
There's a short coding test if you tested for the software developer position, and it ended with a brief HR interview (hardest imo).
The interviewers were all young, and all of them were recruited right out of college and had been working at Epic since. It has a very college campus feel to it.

Epic Systems Work Experiences
- 1.0Lies, false promises, no hopeSoftware Developer • Former EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesAugust 9, 2020Pros: You can feel happy when you see the campus on the inside. Ornate buildings and supportive people contribute to this feeling.Cons: I don't know where to start. There's a blame game going on where if you have a TL who doesn't like you, they will go all over the place blaming you for everything, regardless if it's really your fault. After I put in honestly large hours getting my responsibilities to work, I don't feel the satisfaction and accomplishment I would expect myself to feel if upper management was actually realistic with their expectations.
- 4.0Good if you like MadisonSoftware Developer • Current EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesApril 30, 2024Pros: Smart coworkers who care about the mission.Cons: Always in person in Verona, which isn't ideal if you don't love Madison.
- 1.0If you care about anything but money (friends, health, mental wellbeing), don't work hereSoftware Developer • Current EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesAugust 4, 2020Pros: Nice campus, good food, smart coworkers.Cons: Epic hires young people straight out of college, typically out of state so that they will focus their energy and free time working on Epic priorities, rather than spending time with their families (they won't have any around, out of town, unmarried). It has often been apparent to me that Epic prioritizes many other components of its business—customers, campus beauty, finances (lying about stock options), etc.—often at the expense of employees, but the most recent pandemic has shown they will go as far to risk your health for the bottom line. If you work here, Epic will not value you for anything more than your output. By the way, if you're asked to become a manager, you don't actually get paid more, so keep that in mind.
