Pros
Decent salary for recent college graduates. Decent benefits package. Lots of flexibility in work schedule. Company is respected in industry, although not nearly as much as Epic would like to think.
Cons
-Terrible management: poor ideas, reacts badly to criticism, and is dishonest to employees about company's performance and practices. They claim that this is a non-hierarchical company with an open exchange of ideas. That's only true in that promotions tend to not actually raise your salary; they just mean that you do less practical work in exchange for being a "team lead." The people who get promotions are often those that toe the company line and are most bubbly, not those who know what they are doing. Generally, the development teams are better-managed than the QA and writing teams. -Little opportunity for advancement; most promotions just move you to different areas of the company. The only new skills you learn tend to be how to use other Epic applications, so they only help further your career if you keep working at Epic. Even the production tools tend to be internally-developed, so they have no carry-over value with other companies. -Completely dishonest about working hours: you're paid to work 40 hours, but then are instructed that you're not doing your job if you aren't working 44+. -Tons of time wasted on self-congratulatory meetings and bonding exercises, even during busy times of year. -Company tends to spend more money on making its property look like a theme park than on paying employees. Lots of wasted space and frivolous features that cost the money more to maintain than it's worth.
