Travel Tool is horrible

Pros

Workday as a company as several great amenities to it, but wouldn't say they are amazing. We market the average to be more than that.

Cons

This review is about the travel tool, because depending what role you're trying to get, this impacts you. Long story short, It sucks. Really, how could you roll something like that out to 7500+ employees. It's not cheaper than going straight to airline websites and recently I've experienced I can't even rack up hotel points on certain reservations through the tool because of the website the tool is pulling from. For example, members can earn person account points when booking through the workday travel tool and the tool pulls their rate/reservation through Expedia. How is that my fault as an employee?? Further more, certain teams at Workday force you to use the corporate card because it ultimately gives Workday cash back. So let me get this straight...I have to book through the travel tool (corporate policy) can't earn any points at my hotel, and then can't earn any credit card points because Workday needs the points back? Really takes out Employees come first to heart huh. This company is still as cheap as the pre ipo days...it's sad

Pros

Great group of people. Foundation of product is very cool. Nice friendly atmosphere. Lots of recognition, SC's go to sales club.

Cons

Long history of no promotions, pay scale & expectations are out of alignment. Sales Consultants didn't make full OTE which is "guaranteed" in the interview process. For a small company it's very slow to make meaningful changes. Make recognition meaningful in terms of compensation.

Pros

Follows Agile/scrum practices well and good collaborative/team atmosphere.

Cons

Technology is too difficult to learn quickly. A little chaotic and disorganized. Boot camp and other internal training needs to be improved.
