Pros
There is a ton of meaningful and challenging work to be done, and Epic is never short on new products and projects that feel like they're pushing the industry forward. The majority of my coworkers are driven, intelligent people willing to help you out when needed.
Cons
Employee health, safety, and overall well-being relating to workload expectations are not important to management. Epic's COVID response lagged in March, and in June they are now pushing for employees to go back to campus as new case numbers in Dane County hit all-time highs. All this for seemingly no other reason than an ingrained idea that "we do our best work on campus", despite evidence to the contrary as seen by the amazing support that customers have had from Epic relating to the COVID crisis since March 2020. The single-minded push towards bringing workers back to campus without any reason better than "CEO wants it" has been infuriating. I can't understand why we're weighing safety vs. incremental productivity improvements. It's baffling. This company will give you many opportunities to do great work, but you are on your own to look out for your physical and mental well-being, and upper management is completely disconnected from the daily experience of their thousands of worker bees. They are fine with this strategy, because they plan to hire a thousand new college grads next year anyway, so they have no incentive to keep you happy, healthy, or fulfilled.
