Pros

Working at epic you quickly are given a lot of responsibility and opportunity, with very good pay for most positions. There are some really smart people working at epic. The company tries to teach ethical culture, and to put the patient first. Some nice perks are the relaxed dressed code, single or double offices, great food. Health insurance is pretty good. The campus is pretty neat, though you spend most of your time in offices or meeting rooms. Also they mostly hire straight out of college, so if you are young there will be lots of people your age.

Cons

With lots of responsibility can be lots of stress and long hours. It seemed to be pretty standard practice to assign everyone more work then they could handle, so you have to do a lot of prioritization. Some management is younger and not as experienced.

Pros

Impact: You are part of creating systemic level change for healthcare organizations. You get to be on site and work directly with providers and see how these changes impact their communities. People: Extremely smart and capable. I feel like I can rely on my team in a way I haven't at previous employers. New hires are entry level, so there's a strong community for people in a similar stage of life. Culture: Quirky but in a real, unique way. People are collaborative and celebrate shared accomplishments. The campus enshrines a very specific (and fun!) vibe. Location: Madison is awesome. Benefits: The health insurance is unparalleled. Sabbatical is a super cool perk too. Growth: A lot of autonomy and responsibility allows people to rise to the challenge. Stability: Solid industry, no lay-offs.

Cons

Remote work flexibility: 5 days a year
