Pros

Great co-workers, learn the industry, pushed to become a more efficient and effective employee, and I feel like now that I've done Epic I could do anything.

Cons

A lot of hours, not a lot of transparency between HR and the rest of the company, and it's hard to take vacay because you are so busy all the time.

Pros

I work with brilliant co-workers and and don't have to deal with a lot of politics. We have the opportunity for autonomy and to do meaningful work - I know that I'm improving healthcare and actually helping people and patients every day. It's an atmosphere where we are constantly raising our own bar and nearly everyone rises to the challenge. Generally, people work a lot and work hard because they care. A lot of times, I'll be sitting in a meeting, and look around and think "holy @#$. There are a lot of smart people in this room." I can say with complete confidence that I'm surrounded by the type of people I want to work with.

Cons

It's hard for many new moms to return to Epic. There isn't onsite daycare, and there are not permanent part-time options. For that reason, a number of people end up leaving to either find part-time work or to stay at home with little ones. Others leave to be closer to friends or family who are located elsewhere, since everyone needs to be centrally located in Verona.

Pros

I enjoy working at Epic because of the flexibility I am allowed in getting my work done. I also enjoy the problem solving I get to do on a daily basis. My co workers are a pretty fun group and (once again) enjoyable to be around. Lunches in Verona are phenomenal.

Cons

You need to be willing and able to say 'no' on occasion, otherwise the demands of the job can overwhelm your personal life. Customers can also act a bit silly sometimes, and need hand holding. Though Epic goes out of its way to try to train new employees, you get the feeling that you're being thrown into the fire when you first start.
