Pros

Good food. You can probably get your own office space. I guess campus is big/"fancy" (but like really, who cares how much budget they sink into it? Walking around takes a lot of time.)

Cons

Very stringent against WfH, at least pre-covid. The expectation is to work you like a mule though, regardless of difficulty of assignments or the config issue/old stack you're grappling with. You really have to be very into what you're doing (and probably dedicating your life to it, as if) to last, as they'll systematically push you out around 1-2 yr mark. Basically, it's great for old-timers who've been there basically forever and know the codebase like the back of their hands. As for new folks: do your time, then get out & find some where you'd like (most of you).

Pros

Impact: You are part of creating systemic level change for healthcare organizations. You get to be on site and work directly with providers and see how these changes impact their communities. People: Extremely smart and capable. I feel like I can rely on my team in a way I haven't at previous employers. New hires are entry level, so there's a strong community for people in a similar stage of life. Culture: Quirky but in a real, unique way. People are collaborative and celebrate shared accomplishments. The campus enshrines a very specific (and fun!) vibe. Location: Madison is awesome. Benefits: The health insurance is unparalleled. Sabbatical is a super cool perk too. Growth: A lot of autonomy and responsibility allows people to rise to the challenge. Stability: Solid industry, no lay-offs.

Cons

Remote work flexibility: 5 days a year
