Pros

-Decent pay for right out of college -A nice office complex (that you will never get to enjoy) -A decent benefits package -A chance to take on a lot of responsibility -Retain airline miles and hotel points -Nice cafeteria (that you will rarely eat in) -If you can land a position as a developer, writer, or QA, you may have a better experience than Implementation or Technical Service staff.

Cons

-No work/life balance. In Epic's eyes you can always work more. I average 75 hours a week. My cousin who is a MD resident works less than I do. -No rhyme or reason to promotions. -Middle management does not exist. Your Team Lead will be on 4 customers and will not have time to manage you effectively -Middle managers are inexperienced. My current team lead is 22. -Internal communication of knowledge is lacking and processes for researching issues make no sense. -No real project management unless you advance to the role of IC or higher. -High turnover. People quit every day and armies of recent grads are hired to replace them -Implementations are sloppy affairs. Processes need to be retooled and more structure needs to be incorporated into the project management
