What's wrong with Epic?
High turnover. Epic intentionally understaffs. They seem to have a very 'churn and burn' approach to hiring. Burnout and poor employee mental health. My therapists have said that Epic has a reputation for this in the area. Inexperienced management.

You also get a ton of discounts in the area just for being an Epic employee, like gym memberships and the like. A great place to learn skills.
