      Great opportunity to grow the skills you need for long-term success.

      Pros

      large amounts of responsability are given to you from the very start. Allows you to grow and strengthen core skills necessary for long-term success. Flat structure allows you to push an idea from abstract thoughts to reality.

      Cons

      Not for everyone. If you are not driven by personal accountability, you will struggle to find the step-by-step direction you may be looking for. There is a lot expected of you, and while you are given the tools and support necessary for success, you need to know how to use those resources.

      Hire slow, fire under great prejudice

      Pros

      Low entry barrier. Copious pay and benefits relative to cost of living. Committed customers with whom it is fun to work. Easy work. Down-to-earth co-workers.

      Cons

      Variance in advice, recommendations and policies promulgated by management. Any slander by customer against employee is promoted to gospel, no matter how negligent the customer. Ivory tower management: there is a clear prejudice against truth in favor of protecting middle management and their baseless assertions. In other words, you'll last as long as you can avoid ill management and wanton customers (I only had one of the latter). Good luck!

      Great Place to Work

      Pros

      Epic has a lot of smart people working with other smart people who recognize not only what you do, but what you can do. Everyone becomes competent, knowledgeable, and helpful very quickly. The compensation and benefits are excellent, you can wear jeans to work, and they hire liberal arts degrees. Epic listens to good ideas, and if you're skilled, you can advance very quickly. Management has a sense of humor, and the policies have apparent rationales that make sense and involve very little corporate obfuscation. You can take business trips with your meals, car, plane, and hotel all comped. They offer a month long expenses paid vacation after 5 years of work. Epic is the industry leader, by far, and they know it.

      Cons

      For a lot of jobs at Epic, the hours can be long. I work 40-50 hours most weeks, but put in a week of 60 or more a few times a year. The management structure is very flat, so if a title and concomitant underlings means more to you than more abstract respect and responsibilities, it might not be what you're looking for. Unless you're a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, or rockstar software developer, you probably won't get hired too easily if you're over 30. Verona and Madison are not middle of nowhere by any means, but they're not huge bustling centers either.
