Pros
My coworkers are amazing. They are the ones who help in a crunch, the ones who scramble to keep up with changes when upper management inevitably drops a bomb on us. Each and every person I work with is competent, hard-working, and dependable. That is, in my opinion, what sets Epic apart.
Kontras
Upper management is wildly out of touch. The company's COVID response was abysmal. Most every coworker I talked to was unhappy with the requirement to return to work after competently working from home for a year, yet upper management continued to gaslight employees by implying they heard nothing but excitement from their employees about returning to work. When employees attempted to have their voices heard, this input was swiftly silenced by taking away many public avenues for employees to discuss concerns, and instead employees were directed to an email address to send our concerns into the abyss. The outright refusal of upper management to take their employees' concerns to heart and enact actual change in policies is mind boggling to me. Really makes you feel like a dispensable cog in the machine.
