Pros

They'll hire any coder with a pulse who will drink the kool-aid. Pay is okay. Good first experience out of college. Madison is wonderful. On campus lunch is great.

Cons

I saw that quote on a longtime Epic developer's internal profile. Sums up the product. Outdated tech stack. Company values stability over good software. Epic is truly a mess of a software. A monstrosity built off the original 1970s code. They didn't get UI/UX designers until recently, and boy do they have the roughest job. Don't work here if you want to do good work and be proud of your software. They happily use outdated bloated XML garbage cause " Culture is toxic, management not good. They equate working overtime with "saving lives". CEO will go on stage to all 12k employees and talk about their estranged children. Very bizarre. C-suite will bad-mouth DEI. Commuting in such a small city is annoying.
