Pros

There is a young out of college feel for those looking for it. Competitive pay for someone right out of college. A decent place to start a career.

Cons

There is an extremely high turnover rate. Upper management at times is a complete mess. they work you to the bone at times and the hours can get very long.

Pros

unmatched exposure to opportunities for growth and advancement. The turnover rate is fairly high (most people leave after 2-3yrs). I used to think this was a con -- but then I realized that such a system allows AMAZING ownership for up-and-comers. If you've got a top-tier intellect and the drive to match, then you can be one of the most influential people in the company in 5 years. And Epic compensates you very well, with salaries that jump by 10-30% annually for the highest performers.

Cons

In order to be happy at Epic, you need to have a mature understanding of work-life balance. Meaning, you need to know your limits of work, understand what each new commitment will entail, and be able to dynamically adapt to keep your balance right. Despite what most people who burn-out say, Epic doesn't force you to work hard -- they put you in a situation where you want to work that hard to grow/achieve. That may sound like splitting hairs, but it isn't. Once I realized that I could steer my workload through effective prioritization, well-timed escalation, and proper planning, my workload was entirely my choice. Mgmt at Epic is helpful and supportive, but won't do your work for you and hold your hand. If you're a poor time manager, don't communicate your wants/needs well, or are passive aggressive, you should NOT work here.

Pros

Quality work experience interacting with the top healthcare professionals in America. No experience necessary. Epic trains employees on the system and their implementation methodology. Coworkers are highly motivated, task oriented, and dedicated.

Cons

The intensity and demanding environment can overshadow any appreciation or recognition for the efforts an employee puts out. Most employees are right out of college and have their own ideas about how a company should work. This can be frustrating to anyone who worked at other organizations prior to coming to Epic.
