Working at Epic Systems in Verona, WI: 41 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Verona, WI Area

"The company rewards you for what you put in, allowing those whom work hard to move quickly and soar. The learning curve is steep and does not slow down, adding fresh challenges everyday. The culture is strong, and helpful - However, the higher management has no regard for work balancing, planning, or changing."

"Epic has treated me well, I'm ready for somewhere that I have a path for growth!"

"I worked at Epic for over four years in the technical services division. Most of the day to day work was rewarding as we helped clients optimize their software configurations, implement new features, and direct the learning of system maintenance. The positives during employment were the compensation which is great for an entry level position in Wisconsin and the health benefits which cover a wide array of treatments. The negatives are items which make EPIC undesirable for long term employment include the toxic company culture which rewards loyalty and overwork. One of the company tenants states that one can dissent but once decided you should support the company but what isn’t stated is the massive amount of initiatives that will be decided by upper management and never receive dissent even by managers of 100-500 person teams. This culture and the requirement that all employees live and work in person in Verona, WI will likely scare away employees over the coming years. Because as long as Judy is still the CEO there will be no remote work or satellite offices and that is her hill!"

"There is a an Epic glitch. I believe its name is Judy Faulkner. She is a big mean witch behind her little curtains and mirrors. She toxifies anybody who wishes to ride her coattails. Ms. Faulkner has made her own little Hellish world where everybody is a slave in her dollhouse. Quality of product and competence? LOL...They are about fleecing non-profit hospitals and employees. Pure greed."

"Epic Systems was a great company to start off at right after graduating from college. They have a lot of resources and training in place to make sure you are prepared to start working in your role. It should be noted, though, that depending on your role, you should be careful about being overwhelmed by your workload."

"I've worked with Epic Systems for a year. Epic Systems is a medical software service, like Cerna and Meditech. Epic Systems employs over 9,000 employees and covers the health records of over 70% of the US. I have grown greatly through this experience. I have gained experience working both back and front-end development and programming in multiple languages at once together in highly integrated development. I also developed skills in how to balance multiple projects, deadlines, and responsibilities. I developed skills for dealing with problems, like when I need assistant on understanding the purpose of what my assignment is, dealing with roadblocks, and escalating deadline issues."

"Generally good place to work at. Culture can be fairly casual, although the nature of the customers they support can mean long hours."

"I worked for one year starting in 2019. They have very intense and somewhat nebulous expectations, and although you have a lot of support, not all resources are clearly available. However, they invest a lot in helping you succeed and provide a wonderful campus and lots of training support."

"I've worked for Epic for the past year. I've found that the best part of working at Epic is the respect you receive from leadership. You're given assignments and guidance, but are allowed to work in your own way, in your own style."

"Fast-paced tech company in a leading industry. Epic is a great company to grow careers and work in a challenging but passionate environment where your work saves lives (literally). The company offers a great level of independence and the ball is really in your hands to drive your career."

"There was a lot to be grateful for but also a lot to be desired. You have freedom to choose your own career path but the company lacks benefits like work from home and only offers 15 vacation days per year."

"I've worked at Epic for about six months. It is a great place to learn how to be a valuable and productive worker. It is a difficult place to be if you are not interested in the healthcare industry."

"Epic is an awesome place."

"Epic is great company to start off at, and I've learned valuable project management and communication skills during my time there. You're given a large amount of independence almost immediately off the bat, but you're also given resources to reference and mentors to rely on when you need. The job can become repetitive once you've spent a few years there, and areas for growth are limited, but it';s a good first job."

"The environment is very casual but the employees take their jobs seriously, keeping patient safety at the forefront of everything they do. Unlike typical American companies, the workers do not concern themselves with typical issues like keeping their work under budget, giving them the freedom to concentrate on their work. The job is challenging with some very demanding hours."
