Workday reviews

Claims that it sets industry standards for HR/FIN/technology, while it lacks any standards. No corporate culture or values. Proved to be a very toxic place during the pandemic. No established career trajectories. Unexperienced management chain. Lots of nepotism. The company used to take pride and saying they are different from Oracle, it is becoming even worse. Pay increase only via stocks, very mediocre base increases.

So when I started at Workday, I loved it. I belonged to a great team and had an amazing manager. Once he left things went downhill. A new manager was promoted to SR Manager mainly because this was the manager with the most seniority. Sad but true. Things moved along not getting better but slowly getting worse. 4 years down the road, another new manager and things are really bad. I am not a disgruntled employee. I still love my team. I just can't work under a "manager" that is a bully. This person will target anyone that doesn't tow the line. This so-called manager has targeted not only myself but another employee simply because we question the manager's opinions. I, personally, reached out to HR. I was told that I needed to give the manager a chance to improve which I was open to but not hopeful. That went sideways as now that I went to HR now this manager has more issues. Went back to HR as this is perceived as retaliation and was told again that they would investigate. Gave HR the name of another employee dealing with the same issues and to this day 2-3 weeks later HR has not contacted that employee nor myself. It is sad really that they are promoting a hostile work environment but refuse to do anything. No follow-up at all. Not even an email saying they are still "investigating". I am very disillusioned by what has happened here. And the Sr. Manager over the lower level manager does nothing. I was told that there would be skip level meetings but nothing so far. The things that this "manager" is saying to employees while not illegal are demoralizing and inappropriate. This manager even blames the employee for the bad reactions. "Saying you made me mad so I said those things." Not an excuse. But again, sadly, HR does nothing. Other than this I have no complaints about Workday. I love what the culture is supposed to be. I love the team that I am on. They are all really great people and honestly they have our backs. Unfortunately, leadership can't be trusted.
