Pros

Very competitive salary, very nice food and drinks, comfortable office and easy parking, lots of conferences, presentations and guest lectures. Some members of my team were intelligent and helpful [others sabotaged my work to make themselves look better]

Cons

Obsolete technology is a problem when you interview afterwards. Very heavy workload. The technical assignments are not very challenging but are difficult and time consuming because (1) the software is very old and monolithic and (2) Epic uses the most complex software development cycle I have ever seen [Going through PQA is truly a good exercise, but I spent too much time chasing pedantic issues that just ended up getting dropped]

Pros

Nice sized teams. Beautiful campus. Great pay. The travel is really nice. You travel a whole lot, but getting out of the office for a few days every couple months is something I really enjoyed.

Cons

Not a very good work/life balance. Very stressful near deadlines. I'd recommend working here, but probably not for more than a few years.

Pros

Decent pay, lovely and spacious campus.

Cons

1. Working with their product. They use (or used while I was there) ancient technology. VB6 etc 2. It is expected to work long hours/weekends. 3. You are made to sign a non-compete.
