Pros

Great salary, opportunities for advancement if you work hard, meaningful work, and talented coworkers. Would be a wonderful place to stay if doing so didn't put your health at risk (see below).

Cons

Epic's COVID strategy has been laser focused on getting all 9,000 Verona employees back to campus, regardless of current health risks. Communication about COVID policies doesn't focus on health and safety, lacks empathy, applies overt pressure to return to campus, and is causing anxiety among many current employees. Employees are being forced back into the office without many added safety precautions and Epic leadership ignores or dismisses concerns. This is unacceptable for a healthcare company during a pandemic.

Pros

Impact: You are part of creating systemic level change for healthcare organizations. You get to be on site and work directly with providers and see how these changes impact their communities. People: Extremely smart and capable. I feel like I can rely on my team in a way I haven't at previous employers. New hires are entry level, so there's a strong community for people in a similar stage of life. Culture: Quirky but in a real, unique way. People are collaborative and celebrate shared accomplishments. The campus enshrines a very specific (and fun!) vibe. Location: Madison is awesome. Benefits: The health insurance is unparalleled. Sabbatical is a super cool perk too. Growth: A lot of autonomy and responsibility allows people to rise to the challenge. Stability: Solid industry, no lay-offs.

Cons

Remote work flexibility: 5 days a year
