Epic Project Management reviews

You must wait one year for your non-compete to expire before working for a consulting firm. The company does not treat all of their employees with respect due to the young, niave age of the majority of its employees. They try to control your life too much such as not allowing you to drink with your customers.

The stress of the project management job wears you down over time. While 80 hour work weeks are uncommon except at go-lives (despite what other reviews may say), 60 hour work weeks are common when traveling (only around 45-50 hours/week while in the office). The travel itself is draining as you're constantly in different places and usually not very exciting parts of the country. Besides stress, the job just becomes boring over time. Career advancement at Epic is almost non-existent. After the first few years of learning what to do, you're essentially doing the same thing over and over at different customers. It is also difficult to transition to other applications or roles. The software itself is overly complex, which leads to very long implementations with many issues arising. Development to improve some issues can be slow. Also, you encounter the same problems at many customers, which is incredibly frustrating. Top management is too centralized and they will not farm out any decisions. This may have worked in a company of 250 people, but does not work with 3300 people.
