Great people, great mission, toxic leadership

Pros

The people are amazing. I love the campus, the food, the daily work, and the salary is fair.

Cons

I'm very tenured and have seen the company change precipitously for the worse. Upper MGMT/leadership has lost its way. CEO makes poor, erratic decisions and is out of touch. Dev leadership is toxic. I will quit the second my stock vests.

Pros

* Competitive salary for Madison * Good, cheap food * Excellent health insurance

Cons

* Poor work life balance. Learn to say no, and often. * Mediocre parental leave policy * Mediocre vacation policy. I'd much rather have a bonus + additional yearly vacation. * Mediocre 401k match * Anti-labor policies, such as Epic v. Lewis * Culture where there's no transparency and employees have no real input. * Being subject to the whims of an eccentric billionaire. Let's ban french fries. Let's rename Infection Control to Bugsy. Let's bring everyone back to campus in the middle of a pandemic so that we can all hide in our windowless broom closets and remote into every meeting. Because "culture". Great idea! I mean, even Cerner is letting their employees work from home through the end of the year. Smh

Continually disappointed

Pros

Beautiful campus, amazing co-workers, and an excellent culinary team. Pay is good for the area, though obviously not competitive with major tech companites.

Cons

Behind all the glitter Epic is an opaque bureaucracy that cares as little about their employees as you'd expect of a billion dollar corporation. Epic has always been dismissive of working from home, and that has continued throughout the COVID pandemic. The initial response was slow, and they are pushing employees to return to campus in the face of rising numbers and concerns around the country. Epic has always celebrated it's supposed culture of open discussion and collaboration, but now corporate culture is just an excuse used to dismiss employee concerns.
