      Unfortunately going downhill quickly

      Senior consultant

      Pros

      - Most of the workmates, team leaders, organization leaders, and project leaders are excellent at their jobs and supportive of their fellow workmates and teammates. - Somewhat unlimited PTO. - Comprehensive benefits and mental health support options.

      Cons

      - Non-competitive salaries. - Forcing a return-to-office schedule despite the data (strange for a data-reliant company.) - Mixed messaging of company strategies to employee populations leaves workmates in a strange middle-ground (inconsistent leadership messaging). - Employee feedback is rarely addressed with action (while it is collected, and perhaps acknowledged, the response is closer to 'I hear you' than it is to 'Let us work together to find a solution'.) - Unless you are near HQ (SF/CA), resources are not distributed equitably.

      Manager Makes a Difference

      Sr manager human resources

      Pros

      Benefits, salary, RSUs, and PTO

      Cons

      Workday has its share of inept and toxic managers with significant tenure (blind eye is given to their behaviors). So your experience will be highly dependent on who you report to. As long as you report to one of the solid managers who show real leadership then you’re likely to have a great experience.

      Workday Leadership and the World Economic Forum

      Consultant
      Recommend

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Was once a company that I truly loved working with.

      Cons

      In our last company meet Workday leadership touted their attendance to the Davos conference and Workday's active support of WEF initiatives; namely development of an ESG product. If you are considering Workday, please reach an informed opinion of the WEF and then decide if you want to contribute to the technocracy the WEF envisions for the world. At this point, I and others are contemplating our exit from Workday.
