Epic reviews

It was very bad experience. Leaving Epic was one of the best decisions of my life. I was not asked to leave. But I resigned on my own. I knew the technologies that are used are outdated before joining. So I can't blame Epic for it. But the work culture was very bad. I used to work 60-65 hours per week. But that was not enough for my team lead. Every Monday my lead used to assign me 8-10 issues. I was expected to finish all of them by next meeting. If they were duplicates and were easy to fix then fine. But if they took very long time to reproduce and find the cause then that was it. And most of the time they were like that(bad architecture and dirty code). Lead was not ready to listen to that. It was just the quantity that mattered and not the quality. I planned to stay only 6 months before I joined. But some how I stayed for almost an year. Now I spend more hours at my current job than what I used to spend at Epic. I love it and though no one asks me to. Future Employees: Do a favor yo yourself and find another job.

1. Unmanaged code, lack of robust testing tools. Debugging is extremely annoying. 2. Minimal emphasis to coding standards. Most of the teams use VB and M cache. 3. You team lead is like your dad, you have to report everything.
