Pros

Epic has exceptional opportunities for medium-high performers to take on new challenges and grow professionally. This is especially important for people who plan to leave--demonstrate 2-3 year "phases" of you time at Epic and give them different roles on your resume, because your job title and description will not change. Still rating 4 stars because you can always start working on new skills or improving the ones you already excel at.

Cons

True "growth" at the company--promotions--are limited by your loyalty. Epic selects managers based on their perceived commitment to the company after filtering on performance, not by selecting managers who will be most effective at leading a team. This works OK because they expect staff to be independent after ~2 years while the manager acts primarily as a feedback funnel. Senior management is completely out of touch with the cast majority of staff. Decisions are communicated as if Judy is divinely inspired and can do no wrong.

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
