Before proceeding further, here's a sobering fact about Epic: of the 1,000 new recruits last year (they call it a "class") only 40% remain. The interviews themselves were fun, and the staff from Epic clearly tried their best to show off the multi-million dollar Epic campus, but it was ultimately hard to shake the creepy feeling, as though we were all stuck in some weird dystopian book. That is, look a little past the glitzy lights and no-expenses-spared interior design, and you'll see thousands of people who are overworked and underappreciated. Several times the "happy" employees (for lack of a better term) spoke of the great all-expenses-paid 4-week vacation you get...after 5 years with the company. Until then, you only get 2 weeks off A YEAR. (Compare this to just about anywhere on either coast, and certainly to Facebook and Google, where employees get 4-5 weeks their starting year). It's all bells and whistles. This is a horrible place to work, and the more I dug into everything, the more I researched and the more people I spoke to, the worse everything looked. (Several times people spoke about how hush-hush the top brass at Epic want the company's inner workings to be, that posts--such as this one--should stay offline and that everyone should keep smiling and play nice.) The interview day ITSELF was largely fine, mind you. If you're looking to find out more on this subject, look elsewhere. But what I suggest is that you look HARD into this and really ask yourself if this is the sort of life you want to have. Because, in the very end, this is all that will matter. It's your life. Epic would benefit from unionized labor. Until then, the company has a choke hold on those who work for it.
