Pros of working at Epic Systems

Benefits (PCP and BH free, Rx under $20) and high salary. Learned a lot about myself and how I function in an office-setting. lots of skills developed, learned about Epic and the software world, connected with coworkers and customers. The software is good and truly helps users in the medical field.

Cons of working at Epic Systems

Overworked, under-trained. Expectations are way too high way too quickly. They claim to care about work/life balance but then have lots of things that encourage long hours and high stress. They are very resistant to providing accomodations or considering their employees' perspectives. Require in-person even for devs who never leave their offices. There is a lot of corporate culture and competitiveness, and though they say they value feedback and have various feedback tools, all the feedback I ever got was my team lead telling me "I've gotten feedback that you..." rather than the person telling me directly. There's a lot more training on culture and broad concepts, but all the day to day stuff is basically learn-as-you-go and you have to sink or swim on your own. There's also a ton of systemic issues (classism is the biggest, but racism/sexism/etc are also apparent in various ways) that are not being heard or addressed.

Epic Systems benefits

The cow bikes they have on campus in the summer were honestly one of those "little joys" for me, they are cute and fun and give me a mental break with some physical movement. Also free therapy and GP visits is huge for me.

What do you like best about Epic Systems's CEO and the leadership team?

She has good ideas for the software, and is a female CEO, which helps counter gender norms (though she doesn't do much to fix the sexism in her company).

How would you improve Epic Systems's culture?

Way more focus on mental and physical health, more sick and vacation time. Allowing 100% remote work as an accommodation and offering more work from home days in general. Unionize.

How did you prepare for the Epic Systems interview?

Learning about the company, reading reviews on sites like this, writing down answers to common interview questions

How does your compensation at Epic Systems compare to the industry average?

Higher than average (I think). Epic pays employees a lot, presumably to try to get them to stay since they have so much turnover

What's the diversity at Epic Systems like?

Lacking. There does not seem to be much effort put towards hiring diverse candidates, and the demographics of the various roles align with typical stereotypes (construction/facilities are overwhelmingly male). There are ERGs for various groups, but not much else. Our DEI team doesn't seem to be able to push much up the chain, I dont think leadership wants to change

What brings you the most joy at Epic Systems?

Helping my analysts figure things out and understand things
