Pros

Everyone works hard, but it's a team effort. I never felt like people were trying to bolster their own positions at the expense of others. Lots of company events such as hackathons and worker organized clubs. You feel like you are part of a growing company without having to die for it. They are very accomodating, for example they have standing desks!

Cons

There isn't (yet!) a cafeteria - but there are snacks and lots of restaurants nearby. There really is not much to say here.

Pros

Great people, benefits, culture, and pay. Lots of "workmates" with long tenures (10+ years). I truly wanted to retire from Workday!

Cons

Leadership changes freaked a lot of people out. Things felt unstable within the org for the last year (2025). The culture shifted from one that focused on employee growth to adopt all AI at all costs, and do it yesterday! It was extremely stressful to learn so much, so quickly, and create your own use cases and custom workflows - then to ultimately be laid off despite significant contributions.
