Pros

Salary (takes a bit to be competitive but if you stick it out it will surpass many other opportunities), campus is cool (but you have to be there), dining, industry leader, lot of autonomy

Cons

- No remote flexibility unless you move (and take a paycut) - Executives have lost touch with the average employee over the years - Unrealistic international expectations (see it as an opportunity to the employee vs. doing something for the company) - Losing good employees and flooding the positions with new inexperienced staff (mostly only hire out of college so you often don’t get new staff with experience in a real job) - May quickly end up working 60-70 hours a week and eventually it becomes more of an expectation

Pros

Easy access to food, great benefits, good starting pay, beautiful campus, nice coworkers (for the most part)

Cons

Poor management: Management will overload you with tasks with little purpose or direction. TL’s have little empathy for your free time and mental health as they’re solely focused on your hours worked. Poor culture: Their “feedback culture” is often used as a conduit for petty behavior reminiscent of high school gossip. It becomes quickly apparent who is seen as a “good fit” aka “good enough” for the job. The corporate Koolaid is potent. Easy to burnout: A hefty workload is demanded almost immediately, which can easily cause work burnout and immense stress, especially paired with travel. Once you start working 45 a week, you’ll be told 50 is the minimum; once you start 50, you’re told 55-60; and so forth. Lack of diversity: You’ll be told that diversity and inclusion are huge focus areas, but the staff is almost completely white. Coworkers have a tendency to be openly uncomfortable with you being even remotely out if you’re LGBTQ+. The President of the company has made some racist and homophobic remarks. Poor HR responses: HR does anything to protect the company image, even if it means employees are sabotaged. Stockholm syndrome: It becomes incredibly hard to leave due to Epic’s noncompete as well as the toxic culture which makes you feel inadequate for leaving. The benefits mixed with your relocation package also trap you in.

Pros

Food, offices, good salary for first job

Cons

Without the possibility to work from home and the mandatory relocation to WI it is not worth it. You'll find matching salaries with hybrid flexibility anywhere.
