Software Developer Interview Experience - Madison, Wisconsin
Process
Got an email to set up a phone interview a day after I applied online. The phone interview was with a software developer. The interview was very basic and straightforward. Questions were: Why Epic? Why computer science? And where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Then the interviewer talked about Epic, and then you get a chance to ask some questions.
A day after the phone interview, I got a chance to schedule an online assessment. I had about a week to schedule it. The test isn't hard but takes quite a long time; it took me about 2.5 hours.
There were some tricky questions in the logic and language sections. The programming section depends on the questions you get, but overall it wasn't too bad.
Still waiting on the results from the online assessment.

Epic Systems Work Experiences
- 5.0Relaxing Lifestyle, Great CampusSoftware Developer • Former EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesAugust 27, 2015Pros: The team lead was nice, and the people were helpful. Teammates are smart. The food is good, the campus is fantastic, and the working environment is great. Everyone at least gets a two-person shared office. The project is interesting, despite some people saying that the tech is old. It's not!Cons: Traffic is bad, parking is bad, but you've got shuttles from the parking lot though. If you are a person who pursues challenges, this is not your place. If you are a person who likes a relaxing lifestyle and just does good, has fun, and makes money, this is the place to go.
- 4.0Not so badSoftware Developer • Current EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesJuly 16, 2023Pros: Pays well. No layoffs. Developers own projects.Cons: No remote work, below-average time off, and fairly high-stress since it's healthcare.
- 4.0Early Ownership, Culture-focusedSoftware Developer • Current EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesFebruary 6, 2024Pros: Dedicated, in-depth training for the first few months (useful, though roughly 1/2 was Epic-specific). Lots of ownership over important projects very early on post-training. Great food – for me, worth coming in each day for the morning pastries alone. Seemingly stable career if you choose to stay.Cons: Satisfaction seems to vary team to team and employee to employee. There's a strong company culture that some vibe with and some don't. Emphasis on culture sometimes comes at the expense of employee satisfaction. For example, limited WFH/time off.
