Pros

Good opportunity for young professionals who can't be hired because of lack of experience.

Cons

On COVID-19: Epic has always been awful about allowing people to work from home in an emergency, and they've continued this during a global pandemic. They allowed staff to work from home from mid-March, but continued to welcome people into the office, many who felt pressure to do so. Now, with cases reaching new highs, they're requiring attendance in the office for no reason other than "our culture." We've performed our jobs fine from home for three months, but clearly they've decided that our preference to not spread this disease is not worth us not sitting in our offices alone. The only people who can succeed here are those who are willing to dedicate every waking moment to Epic. No other priorities matter, this can't be just a job. It must be your existence. Which could be fine if the job wasn't filled with ridiculous expectations. New hires are practically immediately expected to be more knowledgeable than the actual employees at the customer who have done this way longer. If you're lucky you'll have a good support system, but more likely than not it's sink or swim.

Pros

Impact: You are part of creating systemic level change for healthcare organizations. You get to be on site and work directly with providers and see how these changes impact their communities. People: Extremely smart and capable. I feel like I can rely on my team in a way I haven't at previous employers. New hires are entry level, so there's a strong community for people in a similar stage of life. Culture: Quirky but in a real, unique way. People are collaborative and celebrate shared accomplishments. The campus enshrines a very specific (and fun!) vibe. Location: Madison is awesome. Benefits: The health insurance is unparalleled. Sabbatical is a super cool perk too. Growth: A lot of autonomy and responsibility allows people to rise to the challenge. Stability: Solid industry, no lay-offs.

Cons

Remote work flexibility: 5 days a year
