Pros: Benefits were decent, the campus was cool, and the on-site food was amazing.

Cons: Cult-like work environment. Training is basically just pro-company propaganda. Tech stack is outdated and miserable.

Pros: Not a bad company to begin with for new graduates, considering the starting pay. Epic pays more, as it is a risky career down the line.

Cons: Not good. Epic stages reviews and ratings on Glassdoor from select employees who they think will give positive feedback. Nobody dares to talk the reality. If you happen to open up, you are screwed/fired. Works mostly on unrealistic timelines. Most of the leads are the worst, who do not know basic math for estimating effort and setting deadlines. Your boss dictates your career. No room for growth is expected for a few. Old technology, especially without relevance to what the industry needs. C# code snippets that you write lead you to nowhere. Internal tools developed are used entirely @Epic. Outside industry looks for better tools and practices. Tries to mimic Amazon culture and its leadership principles, though it’s not in Epic’s DNA.

Pros: Lots of opportunities to tackle tough challenges and work with smart people. Very competitive pay.

Cons: Dealing with government regulation isn't always fun.
