      Great people and flexible vacation, but management struggles - Sr. Software Engineer Workday Employee Review

      Pros

      Flexible vacation, many good people

      Cons

      Senior management doesn’t know what they want. Too much turnover across the company and layoffs. Parts of the company can be really stressful environments and company literally struggles fixing it. Stack-ranking engineers and compensation structure declining. Challenging to get promoted.

      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.
