Pros

I love Workday. I love my manager and my clients. I have gotten very lucky with all the support and resources that our company offers. I like being in house. I have grown and learn so much. There are a plethora of opportunities and tons of guidance from upper management. Well paid role. Prioritize work life balance as well.

Cons

There are some characters that I really truly feel do not belong at the company - completely different culture than the rest of us. They lack ambition and work ethic. There are very very few of those people but they do impact project timelines and make projects just a little bit harder for everyone else. Still manageable. First time I have ever heard of Workday doing this but did lay off people with the current recession. Very few teams were impacted but it was unfortunate.

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).

Cons

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.
