I interviewed at Epic for my first job out of college a decade ago: while the campus is indeed beautiful, the sense I got was that they were trying to emulate Google's quirkyness while offering much lower salaries (but still relatively good given the CoL) and a less exciting product domain. I'm not sure how well that quirkyness appeals to prospective applicants in 2025.
- tmiku 2y agoMy small liberal arts college sent a lot of people to Epic (3-5 grads out of each year's class of ~550), including me - they are known for hiring lots of fresh grads with academic-STEM backgrounds who lack tech industry experience into their technical services and QA roles. I think the hiring dynamics for those non-developer technical roles are more favorable to Epic than those for full developers, and those people tend to make up more of a company's headcount overall.

Of course this has to be taken with a large rock of salt—who knows how reliable or representative this is—but five very negative reviews feels like it's on the unpopular side of the employer market in tech. I get the sense they're slightly less disliked than Meta or Amazon.
