Epic reviews

The company isn't afraid to ask too much of you, so know how to say no

Epic has a hustle culture where you are constantly pushed to do more to such an extent that it is toxic. A couple cases in point: 1) One phrase you here said constantly "Mediocrity is not tolerated". The high performers at other jobs are the average performers at Epic. And being an average performer is not tolerated. So you are constantly told to take on more and more opportunities to an extent that everyone is overwhelmed all of the time. 2) A VP once said "I don't know a single person who hasn't cried because of this job." He meant it empathetically to his credit to make me feel okay about feeling overwhelmed, but honestly this is a massive red flag. The impostor syndrome is simply rampant. I would commiserate with other top performers who seemed to have their stuff together and realized we all felt just as overwhelmed and exhausted as each other, although everyone hid it. After leaving this job and working at a "normal company" I wonder how I survived it for so long. Be prepared to feel overwhelmed 24/7.
