Your honest feedback is much appreciated. It can be hard to navigate review periods. As a potential solution, we suggest speaking to your manager to better understand the system of raises and bonuses. At Workday, performance-based payment is standard and each team designs the relevant criteria. This should help address any confusion. If you have any other worries, consider sending in a Peakon survey, getting in touch with our Employee Relations at employee.relations@workday.com, or making use of our SpeakUp reporting hotline, which guarantees anonymity.

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.
