Pros

Workday had an excellent chance 10 years ago when it was way ahead of the market with a great product and more importantly, outstanding culture. And it did manage to capitalize. The IPO was great and it is a big name in HCM business now. The product is still very competitive and the customers love it.

Kontras

Unfortunately, it looks like the best days are over. Workday is kicking off more and more projects, but they don't get completed well and don't integrate one with another. There are a lot of things I can't tell publicly, but under the hood the product is becoming a mess with more and more holes. The culture became very weird. The management states the values it used to honor but no longer does. We've been asking about management reviews and it's been promised many times but just never happened. Probably too many managers are not interested to make it happen. The management keeps constantly changing marching orders and it results in many projects in flux. As many people stated, the compensation is way below the market. And the career growth - it's not like it's not happening, people do get promoted, but if you want to figure out what you personally need to get done to be promoted - good luck with that. One day we have a campaign to promote GWs, then we hire from outside, then promote from inside. It may played out well for people who got promoted like this, but if you're an average hard worker - you'd be completely lost of what your career path is. While on average people don't work much, some key people are definitely worked until they get burned out. I see a lot of stress due to that around. But HR is ignoring that. I can keep going on and on, but I think you see the point. Sure, it's not the worst company in the business, but it's not a top tier employer any longer and the culture is deteriorating. More importantly, the top management is still in the denial stage where they believe that they are almost perfect and ignoring systemic issues (like lack of management accountability/reviews), that means it's going to get much worse before it gets better.

Pros

Excellent engineering talent and knowledgeable coworkers. Strong engineering culture with high code quality standards. Modern technology stack and opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise software. Good work-life balance compared to many tech companies. Competitive compensation, benefits, and employee perks. Collaborative environment with supportive teammates. Opportunities to learn new technologies and grow technically. Stable development processes and mature SDLC practices. Strong emphasis on testing, code reviews, and software quality. Flexible work arrangements (depending on team).

Kontras

Large organization means decision-making can be slow. Significant amount of process and bureaucracy before changes reach production. Cross-team dependencies can slow delivery. Career growth can depend on organizational priorities and manager support. Frequent reorganizations can shift priorities and disrupt long-term projects. Innovation may move slower than at smaller startups. Internal tools and processes can sometimes feel overly complex. Communication between teams can occasionally be inconsistent. Like much of the tech industry, the company has experienced layoffs, creating uncertainty for some employees. Promotions can take time and require navigating multiple approval levels.
