Pros

-Many intelligent, social, and like-minded coworkers -Beautiful facility -Great launching pad into future careers -Independent work environment -Opportunities for growth

Cons

-Extremely high and sometimes unrealistic demands -Sometimes requires more than 80 hours of work a week -No overtime -Rigid HR policies -Inconsistent management practices -Very stressful at times *Your experience will be highly dependent on what healthcare organization you work with through Epic and whether or not your manager is your advocate. Some people have great experiences and others have terrible experiences. I've seen highly capable and intelligent people dismissed from the company while others that I felt were not as good at the job stuck around for years.

Pros

You're given a lot of responsibility right out of college. The company compensates you well for a first job with little or no experience in healthcare.

Cons

Epic is one of the only large companies in Madison. If you don't like your job and want to stay in tech, you're going to need to move to another city. Relocation isn't fully paid back until you finish two years at the company. The perks of working at the company aren't that great when compared to other tech companies (any company in Silicon Valley). You get free juice and popcorn. The lunch is good (not free), but if you work in a building far from the cafeteria taking time to eat there really isn't an option. The developers at the company aren't great. The company programs in MUMPS and a large portion of the developers come from mediocre schools or are brought in from abroad.
