Epic Software Developer reviews

-Management has had a very poor response to the COVID19 pandemic. They have not made employee health and safety a priority when making decisions. When it started getting really bad in the US, they were very behind in allowing WFH, so much so that a petition was started. Once they eventually caved, they worded it in a way that basically shamed people from doing it and still encouraged people to come in. Their reluctance to take precautions to protect employees is a very common pattern throughout their communications during this pandemic. Starting in mid July they will begin forcing employees back to campus with no option to WFH with all employees back on campus by the end of August. This is despite cases increasing and the CDC still recommending that employees work remotely if they can. There has been almost no transparency into why they have decided to risk our health to be on campus. Additionally, when we return they are not requiring masks to be worn despite the fact that there will be around 10,000 people on campus. -Work from home is not allowed normally, even though you will mostly work on independent projects that don't require seeing or interacting with people on the day to day. -You'll be told that you will be working in languages like Javascript and C# when interviewing, but when you actually start working you will be coding in M, which no other companies use, giving you no transferable experience. -Epic heavily bases your performance on the time you log and will encourage a poor work life balance. -Vacation is low compared to competitors.

Workload can get very intense Upper management is very opaque, resistant to change, and actively quashes dissent. COVID-19 response was very delayed, and permission to work from home is being revoked against health department suggestions.
