This seems a bit presumptuous. Epic's Glassdoor reviews[0] don't seem to list pay or staffing as systemic issues.

I really don’t know one way or the other, though as mentioned in another thread: I’m a devops in games and it pays less but not as poorly as it does for programmers.

That said; Glassdoor is a terrible metric and has been widely criticised as a source of information due to the fact that bad reviews can be removed for payment; though “officially” they don’t accept payment to delete reviews; it’s part of one of their packages to clean up a companies image.

It has also been gamed by employers- but that is obviously a problem for all review sites of this kind.

About 5 years back they were going through a spell of getting lots of engineers from AWS to join them, offering way more than Amazon was. Some of the smartest and most capable systems engineers I know headed in that direction.
