      Pros

      Great workspace, employees are friendly, theres a lot that goes on in relation to events / parties.

      Cons

      I enjoyed almost everything about Workday, however I had one of the worst managers in my whole life. A manager that would insult people behind their back and laugh with them in their face. Every idea that i suggested or brought forward, this manager ignored and neglected them. Favoritism was my managers core value. Only trusted and gave opportunities to favorites. Finally the experience i had with my manager went from professional to personal. This person had very unfair way of treating me.

      I would only work in sales at Workday if you have a manager you trust.

      Pros

      Strong CEO, focused product team, disruptive product in HCM, opportunity to make good money, good health benefits, paid gym membership for remote employees

      Cons

      Sales leadership was constantly changing. Three different VP's in 11 months. I would only work here if your direct manager is someone you trust and will give you the time it takes to get your deals off the ground. On average it takes 1.5-2 yrs to close a deal. There are way too many AE's covering to few accounts. All the low hanging fruit is covered and it still takes a very long time to close those deals. As much as they talk about Workday core values they do not apply to sales. AE's are way to competitive with each other because they are desperate to close a deal. Not very collaborative. Managers work on deals independently of their AE's. Seems crazy. I don't understand why they don't assign them to an AE and focus on managing, leading and supporting their team.
