Pros

If you put the kind of commitment/dedication elsewhere you will be recognized and appreciated a lot. You will not whine about any other work place after quitting epic.

Cons

1) Programming is done in extinct languages, the DB is "Cache" come on give me a break here,, people will actually ask you if you saying about RAM cache memory. 2) Client code is in VB6, do you know that Microsoft stopped support for vb6 4 years back..... 3) The product is very buggy and more code on it means more ways to break it. 4) High turnover rate in all roles, people who are working there don't have any other option than to stay there and they are trying constantly to get out of the company. 5) If the company finds your resume online, YOU WILL BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY... SORRY YOU WILL GET 15 DAYS. 6) No matter how efficient you are, you will be evaluated in terms of the number of hours you work 7) There will be monthly staff meetings and you will find that there are many people who can laugh for almost the most dumbest and boring jokes the CEO cracks. 8) The CEO will teach you grammar in the monthly meetings. 9) You will not have a social life. 10) Probably the most clichéd comment about epic, you need to WORK FOR 60+ hours 11) Too much micro management. 12) Happiness is something that you will lose if you work here. 13) Your QAer will expect you to do a UI that looks like what Apple does, in reality you are working in a language that was written in ice age. 14) One single complaint from the customer will get you fired for sure. Remember everything in Epic is customer centric, the buildings, campus,,, almost everything is for the customers. 15) The interview is a complete lie, they will tell you that the work hours are flexible and you will have a great work life balance.
