Great starting salary for a job fresh out of undergrad.
Except for vacation time, the benefits are quite good.
Beautiful campus with great food that is also quite cheap.
Nice signing bonus.
As a developer, there's a chance you could have a private office starting out.
Very limited vacation time.
Lengthy training period.
To have any hope of raises or advancement, you have to work very long hours.
Most of the work will be with very obscure and/or obsolete technologies (Visual Basic 6 and MUMPS). A very lucky few will get to work with more modern things like C#, iOS, or Android, but everyone needs to work with MUMPS.
Epic likes to present itself to its employees as a very open company, but many processes are so opaque (especially advancement) that they breed paranoia.
Very high turnover rate. Software developers probably have the lowest turnover, but don't be surprised if many of the people you start with are gone after a year.
I had to take a lot of tests and had a phone interview where I talked about my past projects. The tests were hours long and took a long time.
30-minute phone screen, then an OA around 4 hours long. The OA had mental math, but also a few LeetCode-type problems. They were not very difficult if you studied common patterns and implementation.
One single virtual interview after a multihour OA. The interview was 4 hours long, but only ~2 hours was actual interview stuff. The rest was two presentations from different people about life at Epic. The 2 hours of interview included a case study,
