Pros

• Competitive salary for Madison • Good, cheap food • Excellent health insurance

Cons

Poor work-life balance. Learn to say no, and often.

Mediocre parental leave policy.

Mediocre vacation policy. I'd much rather have a bonus plus additional yearly vacation.

Mediocre 401k match.

Anti-labor policies, such as Epic v. Lewis.

Culture where there's no transparency and employees have no real input.

Being subject to the whims of an eccentric billionaire. Let's ban french fries. Let's rename Infection Control to Bugsy. Let's bring everyone back to campus in the middle of a pandemic so that we can all hide in our windowless broom closets and remote into every meeting. Because "culture". Great idea!

I mean, even Cerner is letting their employees work from home through the end of the year. Smh.

Advice to Management

Once Judy steps down, maybe things will improve?
