Pros

A pretty good entry level job while you're there. Good opportunity for salary growth. Cool, young culture.

Cons

Actively participates in locking former employees out of working in the industry through (illegal) non-competes and contracts with customers and industry consulting firms. Regardless of what your employee agreement says, you may not be able to find work in the industry after leaving because every consulting firm and customer has agreements with Epic on who they can/cannot employ. Control of even fairly minor decisions lies with a very small group of 5-10 very senior executives (including the CEO), so do not expect to ever climb beyond a mid-level supervisor.
