Pros

Good pay for fresh young grads, perks that come with traveling (miles, hotel points, nice meals), really cool campus, great food, young culture.

Cons

You better fit the mold or you leave. Highly political due to its "horizontal structure," feedback system that's used for any movement throughout the company, and lack of clear organizational process. You submit feedback for Epic into what feels like a void. You don't really have a voice or a choice in your work unless you have gained seniority. People are motivated to compete for the spotlight rather than collaborate due to feedback system. The performance norms are ridiculous- if you don't put in an extraordinary number of hours, you are seen as a slacker.

Pros

Epic provides a very high salary in an area with a low cost of living. There's a small amount of travel but you can use it to see new places and it's flexible. Benefits are very nice. The Verona campus is very pretty, and there's support for after-hours personal interest clubs.

Cons

Management doesn't care about the employees. There's a lot of projects with no clear direction and a vague goal that developers are expected to turn into a finished product with little to no assistance. Overtime without pay is expected by the company; expect to be reprimanded if you work less than 45 hours a week and you'll frequently go past 50 or 60.
