Pros

Young company (median age around 27) Nice new campus (still expanding) with no cubicles (although you may share an office with 1 co-worker) and high-quality cafeteria Every 5 years, employees earn a sabbatical (4-week paid vacation to another country) Every employee receives a Christmas card with a $100 bill inside (in addition to any performance-based bonus)

Cons

Highly stressful 45 hours a week considered the minimum When traveling to customer sites, 12-hour shifts may be required If scheduled to work both days of a weekend, only 1 day off is rewarded Technical services role frequently required to carry after-hours pager for emergencies - no compensation for hours worked outside of regular business hours for these emergencies Epic software is complicated to set up, and upper management is trying to shift more of the burden for the set-up to Epic employees (Technical Services in particular), than to staff at the customer site

Pros

salary is high for Madison, WI travel, if you like travel young coworkers food is good, but you don't have time to eat it

Cons

i cried on the way to work almost every day because i couldn't stand the thought of being there another week. Everyone is so miserable and if you maybe, kinda, sorta like the work you are doing you will be shunned by your coworkers and told "You must not be working enough hours" or "you must not be traveling enough" or "you must not have enough to do". I was told I would be traveling 50%. By my first year, from Jan to March 1st, I had been on 16 trips and in the office exactly 3 days. I didn't have to go grocery shopping from October of 2010 to September of 2011 because I was constantly on the road, however. Quitting was the best decision I have ever made. And, I am very serious about that.

Pros

Epic gives employees a lot of responsibility very early in their career. This allows employees to grow rapidly and achive quick success.

Cons

Transparency of issues and standing within the company is not always clear. Managment can do a better job of outlining expectations and when expectations have been met/ not met.
