Epic Systems

• Campus
• Food
• Resources for learning
• Responsibility and important work quickly
• No micromanagement from your Team Lead (unless you are doing poorly)
• If doing well, you have decent input towards the type of work you do
• Feedback can be very helpful but also overwhelming when you feel like you're walking around a Black Mirror episode with stars over your head, trying to impress everyone.

This is not an engineering role. If you stay too long, you're not going to be qualified for true engineering.

As an integration engineer, you can't look at 90% of the things you're integrating with due to it being "competitor" software.

Very lean company. You will either do a bunch of internal projects that stretch you thin or you'll be ranked down for it.

The ranking process… every TL gets together and decides who is the best at their jobs despite having very few interactions with most of the people. This directly impacts your pay, raise, and future opportunities.

The company isn't built to keep people around for a long time, but it also boxes you in with non-compete, non-solicitation, and internal software that makes it hard for you to leave.

People have lots of power, which can mean huge decisions get made without consulting those that are impacted by the choice.

Upper management: stop making policies that 90% of the company does not support. Expand Boost and allow people to work remotely, or you're going to be ruined by the FTC non-compete ban.
