Epic Program Manager/Implementation Consultant reviews

I've worked at Epic for nearly 6.5 years. Epic is filled with smart, motivated people--it's my favorite thing about the job. Starting a couple months into working here, you are able to start making a positive impact on our customers: hospital organizations looking to improve patient outcomes. You get a lot of responsibility early on, and for me, that pushed me to grow and be challenged. As you become more experienced, you make an impact not only in your customer work, but with other roles internally at Epic that interest you: for example, I'm involved with helping HR and in advising customers who've been live on Epic a while about how they can continue to improve, implement new features, etc. From talking with friends and those who've moved past Epic into other careers, there's lots we take for granted here as well: a beautiful campus, an amazing, changing menu of food supplied by our own Culinary team, and generally how well things are run here from orientation to our customer-wide conferences.

Epic is one of the few companies where you don't need to wait for someone to leave to move up the ladder. It has a very flat structure which allows the most talented and hardest working employees to quickly become managers and even company leaders in 2-3 years. While I wouldn't say this is easy, or what most employees do, the opportunity is there. Epic is also a company where you can really choose your own adventure (provided it provides reasonable value of course). If you are passionate about something in particular or you identify a problem, you can usually work in that field and are empowered to make it better. Relatively speaking there is little red tape for a company of 10k people. Although many young people don't realize it, Epic has health insurance that is unbelievable. Incredibly low monthly cost to the employee, and essentially $0 deductible and copay. I know people who work for hospitals that don't have healthcare this good.
