Pros

This place used to be all about rocket growth, great atmosphere, getting things done, great halloween parties. People took a unique interest in you as a person and even after having left over a year ago I still keep in touch with a lot of former workmates.

Cons

There are 2 things that happened: 1) Workday started hiring poor performers and bad middle managers. As those managers hire more people the problem exponentially grows. 2) The customer focus has been taken hostage by a wokeness that is destroying what was once a great company culture. The diversity officer opens and closes company meetings. People get hired based on ethnicity and race. Even the product now has features for Workday's customers to keep track of the racial makeup of their teams. What is happening?!

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
