Epsilon Reviews

Pros

remote work culture opportunities to learn and grow good work life balance

Cons

can't think of for now

Pros

Overall: great benefits, unlimited PTO, plenty of opportunity for career growth and support to do job well. Can be flexible in your work situation (working from home, part time, etc.) Value work life balance.

Cons

Experience can be dependent upon team you are on and can be dependent upon the type of client(s) you have, if in a client management role. Company does not reimburse for internet/office supplies if working from home.

Pros

- company has a decent reputation within industry - a lot of resources available to employees - company gives “days of rest” - lots of remote of flexibility

Cons

-Extremely high turnover. It got exhausting consistently training, and majority of them would end up leaving. They have the mentality if they hire a ton most likely a couple will stick around. -I’m sure this varies by team, but I experienced a lot of drama and gossip. (If someone made a mistake, or were struggling in area, it was always such a hot topic, it was very toxic.) - Unbalanced work loads. Everyone Id talk to either had nothing to do to the point they were struggling to stay busy OR had wayyyyyy too much on their plate and was extremely overwhelmed. -I’d consistently work 10+ hours a day to keep up. And when I’d log in late nights or weekends there were always multiple people online doing the same thing (like 11pm or later) - People would get promoted to management as incentive to stay, but a lot of them didn’t actually have the skills. So you end up with alot of bad managers. - Most managers are also extremely hands-off (which maybe some people like) but be prepared to be handed a bunch of work with no guidance. Most managers do monthly 1:1s and that’s the only interaction / instruction you’ll get… Overall found this company to be extremely chaotic and messy. Wouldn’t recommend. However I do think it can really vary by role and team.

Pros

Nice people *mostly* Unlimited PTO can be nice, but most don't take it

Cons

Growth is impossible. I've been at the company for almost a decade and getting promoted is like trying to walk on water. You can be performing at the next level for YEARS but they will not promote you because of their terrible process. Opinions are not heard or taken into consideration. When I've brought up issues I'm told to "try and make it work" or "hold on for a little" instead of action being taken. Salary is outrageously LOW for my position and area. As you can guess, I'll be leaving the company and will not recommend to anyone. Sad because I really wanted this to work out, gave it almost a decade. But it's time to cut the loss.

Pros

My peers at management level and below were all awesome, gained some close friends as well along the way. Lots of fresh faces and new ideas and viewpoints to explore. Established processes and documentation - thanks to people like me! Trend setters had freedom to establish high expectations.

Cons

Leadership and executive levels are all out of touch, they kneel to the society trends. I lost faith the time we had a 2-day mandatory brain washing session in 2020 about BLM and inclusion - all that seemed to do was divide us more. They changed their logo 4 times during my 13 years! Main leaders also left and company acquired by a larger European firm, everyone is now lost and woke, it's a joke. I was glad I got to be there for the good normal and logical years.

Pros

FTO, 401k match, education assistance, health and dental Coworkers are awesome. Excellent work life balance

Cons

The pay is significantly below the going market rate which leads to higher than expected turnover.

Pros

Benefits are all great from medical to unlimited PTO. The PTO is truly flexible and as along as your team is okay with it. You may take off when you want. We also get one “rest day” a month (could be just the holiday) but either way it’s a company shut down, which is also great. We are given a lot of work life balance & people in the company are very respective of it.

Cons

Pay compared to other companies is definitely much lower. Not a lot of training in the beginning, but it depends who you work with and meet. There has been a lot of shifting of titles, teams, & management every year or so that has made it very hard to understand certain teams/roles’ responsibilities. Managers tend to be very overworked. Not really a con, more so advice. But, if you want to move teams, it’s definitely in your own efforts to make it happen and they are usually supportive in directing you.

Pros

The culture is pretty easy going. At least in engineering. Work is not too stressful, but can be. You get the opportunity to own projects early on. Technology used is relevant and great for a resume. Remote work. No layoffs. Company is doing well. Nice office.

Cons

Pay is below market rate. It is difficult to get straight answers from HR and management regarding compensation. Internal recognition system is weak and lacks any real value. Raises feel impersonal and computer generated. “Unlimited time off” policy feels like it actually results in people taking less time off because of its ambiguity. You can probably be compensated significantly more somewhere else using the same tools and solving problems of a similar difficulty.

Pros

A good place to work, a good environment

Cons

nothing I can think of, and no cons

Pros

Amazing technology and benefits. Used to do free bagel Fridays in the office

Cons

Experienced sexism and harassment during my time at Epsilon, which unfortunately were not addressed when escalated. It was the most toxic work environment I've ever been part of.
