- Poor work life balance. Expect to work minimum of 50 hrs/week
- Technology us outdated. client side is VB and server side is chronicles.
- You will have to code in M language. No one I know uses this language anymore, so you wont be able to market this skill. This is not even cache. Cache has so many features and Epic doesnt use any of them.
- Epic has been saying that they will be migrating to .NET for a while now. Not all the code will be migrated to .NET. Only some apps.
- Epic sends its employees to onsite and that time is not counted. You are still expected to finish off your work even when you are travelling.
- In Epic you dont know what your TL is thinking about you, everything is so secret. You dont get enough feed back from your TL.
- Some of the TLs lack people skills. They just want to get work done. They dont know how to respect their team members. I have seen some good people leave just because they hated their TLs
- Lack of communication between team members at personal level. Everyone sits in their own rooms and the only interaction they have among themselves is when you have a question related to work or during meetings.
- Everything you do as a developer is measured. Lot of micro management.
- Some get promoted to TL soon, within 2 years. I dont know the criteria. TL decides your career/future. If you dont become a TL within 2 years, forget about becoming a TL
