Pros

Training here is long but very helpful to get you situated, flexibility in schedule, smart and amazing people to work with and everyone you see is excited to be at work.

Cons

For App Developers you need to keep other programming languages in your back pocket because you won't get to practice them here

Pros

Workday has been on a growth trajectory but has not changed in its basic outlook towards employees and customers. It's a fun place to work, where you get opportunities to work on exciting new projects. Work life balance is great - there may be some ups and downs in terms of work load, but overall a good balance is maintained. Management is very supportive and encourages innovative thinking. Decisions are made fast and emphasis is on trying, starting small and getting things done.

Cons

Can't think of any.

Pros

Started paying super competitively as of November 2013 due to the IPO. Management cares about you, and the work place is friendly. It has an upbeat college atmosphere where you're expected to be extremely social.

Cons

Some people spend all their time here. But that may be simply because they like it, not because they have to. People are often loud, joking, and jolly, which is mostly a pro but sometimes is distracting from work. You'll need some noise cancelling headphones if you want to concentrate.
