Culture is eroding

Pros

OK salary compensation package, life depends on which org you are working for, some of them are ok, some others are bad e.g. IPE.

Cons

The culture and value this company has been proud of is eroding. If you are new and fresh you may find this is a good place to work for. But if you have been here long enough, you would feel the only value left is profitability, everything including employees that are stop the company being more profitable will be discarded. Micro managing at its worst. I have never worked in a company has such intense micro management. Basically there is not much room for mistakes. Everything you learn here is mostly workday stuff, which you can't bring it with you to other opportunities outside Workday. WLB depends on your role, if you are SRE, good luck with that.

Pros

It used to be great. It started to go downhill when one of the founder retired years ago. Now just salary is still ok (but less and less competitive)

Cons

Old proprietary technology that is used just within Workday. No clear strategy from top management, very hierarchical top down approach with at the same time no take of responsibility on decisions. Total lack of transparency and clear goals. Managers are selected within social circles and the main quality of most of them is to be a good yes-man. Discriminatory approach toward anyone who is not based in States or is not Irish. If you are an expat in Dublin office be ready to work double and see Irish colleagues get all promotions. Frequent very unfair practices.
