Pros

Handling of Coronavirus outbreak extremely impressive and proactive.

Cons

- Arrogant workforce - Inability to handle payroll and taxation affairs appropriately - 0/10 Marketing Dept - 0/10 Business Development Dept - Extremely complicated, convoluted and inept approach to sales territories and execution - Tedious, cumbersome levels of bureaucracy at all levels - “Not My Job” syndrome is highly prevalent and is everywhere you look at Workday. This is the single biggest problem in this organisation - Sub-optimal sales teams - incompetence rife across sales organisation - Atrocious commission structure

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.
