Pros

Usually if you see problems the management is open to letting you change it. Ownership is big. I mentioned a significant amount of problems with Epic but that also means great opportunity for people willing to take the effort to force change.

Cons

Epic's efficient hiring process, campus, and salary may be alluring but it is a little bit of a trap. It is symptom of their high turnover rate which exists for a reason. They will grind you up and spit you out. Developers are expected to carry a significant burden and often only get to spend 5% of their time actually developing. The rest of the time is spent fighting with Epic's internal infrastructure that only exists because developers got fed up with the fact that the company did not find it important enough create. This problem persists because older developers at the company are used to it and new developers get so fed up they quit early.

Pros

Hard working, intelligent people committed to the mission at hand. GREAT food in the cafeteria. Cool campus.

Cons

High turnover rate, because they hire a ton of people out of college assuming many will drop. Lots of travel, lots of hours. Don't give a damn about workers' rights.

Pros

I've been at Epic over 10 years. What gets me to work each day is that I have a lot of variety and autonomy. My career has changed enough that I've never been bored - there's always been a new challenge. I get lots of feedback and validation and feel valued by my manager, coworkers and company. I feel that my hard work and success are recognized as evidenced in my compensation and access to opportunities. Recent changes (ability to purchase stock, paid parental leave) show a vested interest in retaining experienced employees. I expect to stay at Epic for at least the next several years.

Cons

I would like to continue to see more flexibility with schedules such as more options to work from home at least part-time. I would also like to see more organization around international relocation and for these assignments to be more appealing to more experienced staff.
