Pros: The pay is very good.

Cons: This is a company that punishes work ethic. If you are more productive, they will load you up with more work until you are overwhelmed. As a baseline, they expect you to work at least 45 hours per week. Some weeks are much higher. They do not respect their employees, and their ONLY concern is dominating the market share. I don't know anyone who plans to work here long term. Everyone wants out.

Pros: Crash course in navigating corporate culture. The people you work with are generally nice.

Cons: Recent issues of note: You are required to move to Madison, and Wisconsin has criminalized abortion. Epic management has yet to act and has willfully concealed the fact that one of the healthcare options does not cover abortion services or LGBTQIA+ related care. Internal discussions have been shut down, and no further information has been provided. Patterns of behavior: Management will guilt trip you into overworking yourself into and through burnout. Internal staffing processes consistently fail to allocate resources appropriately to necessary areas and treat some of those processes as volunteer work rather than valuable and necessary contributions, despite the fact that the company would not function without them. There are many well-intentioned, intelligent people at this company, but the inflexibility of upper management means their hands are tied and they are prevented from making positive change.

Pros: Decent pay, lovely and spacious campus.

Cons: 1. Working with their product. They use (or used while I was there) ancient technology, like VB6. 2. It is expected to work long hours and weekends. 3. You are made to sign a non-compete.
