Pros

- Great healthcare benefits - It’s cool to say you work at Epic

Cons

- Clear homophobia, sexism, and racism that starts at the top and leads to fear and illness. - Epic leads through fear. Their C-suite leadership continues to operate this way. - The only place I’ve ever worked where I felt I was a number, not a person. I’ve worked at most top tech companies. - You literally have to pay for swag. - No development or growth opportunities if you’re not one of the “boys”. - Leaders are made simply because they are there, but they don’t know how to lead or manage. They don’t understand how to resolve conflict management. Same with HR. - Performance reviews do not lead to pay raises. They lead to bonuses that are so nebulous no one even understands how they work.
