Career killer for Developers
Career killer for Developers
- Good competitive pay compared to other similar companies.
- Good campus and office space.
- Recognition for good work. If you show keen interest in the work and leadership skills, you will be promoted pretty soon.
- Horrible work-life balance (Expect to work more than 70 hours a week).
- You will be spending most of your time in the office (7 days a week and more than 10-12 hours a day).
- You feel exhausted after a while, and the pressure to work on new projects always keeps piling on.
- They promise that developers would be working on C# and .NET, and that is a lie.
- 95% of the developers end up working on VB and CACHE (a database that nobody really cares about) for the rest of their life at Epic, so there is no professional growth.
- Higher management treats you like a piece of furniture and expects you to work round the clock (even on weekends and holidays).
- Higher management fires employees like crazy for no big reasons.
- New grads, beware: This is a career killer.
- Very high attrition; you will be seeing people leave every now and then.
Treat developers with respect regarding their work-life balance. There needs to be a work-life balance, or you will lose quality people to other companies.
