Pros

The work I do is important, meaningful, and challenging. I write software that's used in hospitals and clinics all over the world. I have a lot of independence, and I've owned several projects in my first few years. My coworkers are intelligent, they take ownership of their work, and they're motivated by improving patient care. The company leaders are wicked smart. The salary and benefits are outstanding. The not-so-standard benefits like the food, underground parking, and onsite oil changes make life easier.

Cons

Team leads can have a huge impact on people's well-being. Most team leads are good, and people at Epic are generally responsible for their own success, but a bad relationship with your team lead is detrimental.

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
