Pros
  • Culinary services
  • Pay and insurance
Cons
  • PTO is a joke. The 1-month sabbatical doesn't even come close to making up for the garbage sick and vacation leave when you compare it to any regular job in the industry.

  • There is an oft-repeated phrase that you just need to learn to say 'no' to manage your workload at Epic. That was a complete lie in my experience. I wasn't someone who regularly said 'no' to hard projects, but the 2 times I couldn't possibly accomplish what was being asked in the given timeframe, I was told I was on the project anyway. Then I received negative feedback when I wasn't staying above the 45 hours I had already been working to meet their timelines.

Advice to Management

Your lack of planning doesn't constitute an emergency for your employees.
