Epic Systems

Fantastic cafeterias that have inexpensive food.

Juice and milk in the fridges.

Practically zero supervision.

Opportunity to travel pretty much anywhere in the US for go-lives.

You will learn literally nothing that is at all relevant to any other company in the industry.

Epic is the most fiscally wasteful company I can imagine. Every single project is developed without supervision and without any budget, as far as I could tell.

Epic will only consider hiring developers directly out of college. This results in the majority of projects being staffed by developers who are not qualified for the project. I remember one project I was assigned to that initially had 3 brand new developers. 2 of them left within the first 6 months, and they were replaced by two even newer developers. The project, which I could have developed in my free time over a few months, ended up taking a year and a half and costing close to a million dollars.

Thank god I was able to find a job at a real software company based on other qualifications.

Start to consider industry-standard technologies as viable for your company. It does no one any good to insist on MUMPS, Cache, and VB when the industry has created much more efficient technologies.
