Epic Systems

Just traveling to new places on immersion trips.

Worst experience I've ever had in my whole life regarding all sides: life balance, people you work with, work environment, atmosphere. It was just bad.

You'll be losing your skills over time until you'd be unemployable because you have no market value from an "Epic" background.

It's been more than 5 years. They say we'll move from VB to C#, but still, more than 70% of the company codes in VB. Imagine in 2017, I was coding in VB. The last time I coded in VB before Epic was in primary school.

Company culture is very bad. I've seen people getting fired because they didn't like their team leaders' way of leading or talking. They were fired because they escalated to HR!

Everyone has a private office, which makes it very difficult to ramp up fast. Everyone pretends to be busy, and it'll be so difficult to get someone to help you.

Everyone has some weird ego. My team leader was acting like he's the godfather, and even my mentor, who has just one more year of experience than me, once yelled at me, "Don't talk while I'm talking!". This happens to many new hires, which is why I'm mentioning it.

People never talk to each other, even outside the company. Everyone looks sad inside!

No life balance at all, and still, you learn nothing.

• You should consider using some recent technologies!
• Teach people that they are equal, not manager and developer!
• There should be some way we can escalate our managers without getting into trouble. I've seen it myself; many people were fired by their managers because they had an argument with them!
• Life balance is very bad; hire more people!
