Epic Software Developer reviews

Though they are moving towards modernizing, a lot of what they use is a bit outdated (Subversion, Visual Basic). I would expect this to not apply anymore in about a year, with the exception of M, the language they use for their database. Your experience will vary widely with your Team Leader, and there isn't really anything you can do about who you get initially as far as I know, though you can switch later if you want (but not many apparently do). I said Madison is a nice town but the campus is on the outskirts of town in Verona, which leaves you with a choice: live close to work, or live close to the things that make Madison interesting. I ended up choosing to live close to work and eventually found that I missed a lot of the aspects of city life. Additionally, the work from home policy and attitude towards covid is in stark contrast to a lot of other tech companies -- no plans for any sort of hybrid and very loose with their mask policies etc.

- Overworking/ 50+ hr workweeks are expected. Work/Life balance can be difficult to manage. - Technology is Epic-specific and fairly old. Technical skills are somewhat non-transferrable. - Can feel isolated at times. Coming into Epic as a new dev hire, I found that it was difficult to meet people on the team and form relationships. Most of my time is spent in my office, with biweekly meetings with team members (this is more of a team by team culture, however).
