Pros

- Good pay for its location - Not a bad place to start out of college

Cons

Joining Epic was initially exciting, given its reputation for revolutionizing the healthcare industry. However, beneath the surface lies a toxic work culture that can drain even the most enthusiastic employees. The work-life balance is non-existent. Expect to regularly clock in long hours, sacrificing personal time and mental well-being in the process. The company culture subtly promotes the notion that working excessively long hours is not only acceptable but also expected. As IS (project manager), they flat out told you 45 hours are bare minimum and 50 are expected/regular. As a result, half of my hiring class has already left (we started two years ago), and I've seen so many higher tenure people leaving in my short time here. Furthermore, communication within the company is lacking. Important decisions are often made without proper consultation or transparency (snow day policy is a peak example). The upper management rarely, if at all, asks for our feedback. Speaking of feedback, the feedback process and culture here are really exhausting. Instead of fostering constructive criticism for personal and professional development, feedback often come across as backstabbing/nitpicking. The lack of transparency in the feedback is worsening this situation. Constructive feedback should be given openly and transparently. However, all the feedback is anonymous to you, and your TL sometimes doesn't even have an idea of what an actionable feedback looks like/wheter this feedback is really actionable. Still, they will hold it against you when time comes for salary raise/promotion/terminaiton.
