Vantaggi

The designers, developers and copywriters were good people to work with and have some serious talent.

Svantaggi

It's hard to even know where to begin. This might be one of the more toxic work environments from a management side that I have ever encountered. I essentially got no onboarding or training. The expectation for billable client hours was 95-100%. Which gave me no time to do anything else while there was creative to be done. A couple of months after my hire date, they put me on all the accounts where hardly any work was going on and I continually got talked to about how poor my performance was and not getting enough done until I was eventually let go. I was set up to fail. There was little to no managing of clients or their expectations. The turnover between account managers and the digital department approached 100% in my short time there, and the expectation was to work overtime, work through your lunch and not take any breaks. God forbid if you wanted to leave a few minutes early . The benefits they offered to be more "competitive" are a joke. 3 whole days of paternity leave, 1% matching 401k that vested after 5 years and an additional 2 days of PTO off per year, totaling 17. You On paper, yes they have benefits. If you like a hyper competitive work place that has toxic management, micro manages your time, offers benefits that aren't really benefits and treat you more like a high school student than an actual adult, this will be the agency for you.

Vantaggi

Leadership is transparent and explains the why behind decisions. Supportive, fun team that celebrates wins. We rally when things get tough and solve problems fast. The work moves real numbers for clients and feels meaningful. Plenty of chances to learn and own projects.

Svantaggi

Not necessarily a con, but agency pace is fast and context switching is real. Priorities can shift quickly with client needs.

Vantaggi

Hybrid/Remote Work Opportunity to try something new

Svantaggi

If you think the company name is the only outdated thing here you're in for a treat! Epic has all the hallmarks of a business run straight out of 2002 including (but not limited to): Micromanaging Unrealistic expectations Unclear leadership direction Just "suck it up" mentality Nepotism There's a lot to be said that when a big client leaves, the company implodes. 2025 wasn't a kind year to Epic, and unless something drastic changes, don't look to see them operating in 2027
