Is the largest electronic health record vendor in the United States using restrictive noncompete agreements to kneecap its employees and monopolize the market?
Epic is an extremely abusive employer. I graduated from nearby UW-Madison from the Computer Science department and this is well known among students there. The smart ones know to stay away from Epic.
They require 50-60 hour work weeks with seemingly large salaries, although per hour it's much less than the average software developer salary in the area. You're pretty much a slave until you inevitably burn out after a year or two. Their model is preying on young undergrads who don't have much money yet, so I'm not surprised they have such an insane non-compete agreement.
I've personally known many former Epic employees at jobs I've had, so it's alarming that these people may be still barred from so many jobs in the area.
I think Epic is known for average salary but then you work there for a while and get some Epic certifications and then you leave to make 3x as an “Epic consultant” charging through the nose for implementations in hospitals.
