Pros
- Lots of chances for those with little work experience to get. Managing projects, overseeing budgets, staff supervision. - You work with the smartest most driven people around - Beautiful campus if you can stomach the Wisconsin winter - Culture of accountability is one to be emulated - Good pay out of college
Cons
- Workload is immense. Average Epic employee probably accounts for 2-2.5 FTE at other places - Very little time carved out to manage people. Managers just get that added to their plates on top of everything else. This means that you don't get enough time with your manager and the performance review process is a joke. - If you're not good at saying 'No' and managing your plate, you will likely get burned out quickly. - Leadership feels that they can replace anyone with new college grads - Lower than market value pay for experienced staff
