Pros

employee perks are nice. work/life balance is good. opportunity to learn new things thats all.

Cons

compensation may not be as competitive, compared to other employers in the area. Manager's seem to care only for the direct reports with whom they are in good terms or maybe friends from some of their previous employers, for the rest of the people on the team its just about hard work, taking up new challenges and at the end don't expect any recognition or promotion for all the good work you deliver. No recognition for any better job done, no growth expectations. Even after putting the Manager's through all the leadership trainings I guess nothing really changes, if the nature of the person is like that.

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.
