Workday reviews

Pretty much everything else. Workday hires cheap resources while expecting quality work. The VPs hired in the past year are all worthless. The goal of Workday is to layoff as many people as possible to squeeze the profits. Switching back to the old CEO (who approved all of the layoffs done by the prior CEO, mind you) is supposed to magically fix everything? Good luck with that. The goals never changed because the old CEO approved everything the prior CEO did. Don't believe me? What did the old CEO do to make up for everything the prior CEO did? Did they re-hire and re-train the people laid off? No. Did they give a bonus to everyone who is still stuck here? No. Did they bring back any of the benefits that the prior CEO took away? No. Oh, but they did offer a Workday-branded gift, so that's nice, I guess? Oh, and AI is now extra extra important, emphasis on the double extra! So what's the new direction? Oh, just use AI more? Okay! Do you like taking two months to get onboarded because no one knows how to get you access to what you need? Do you enjoy listening to leadership that sounds just like chatgpt? Do you look forward to security taking tools away from you because they're "not secure" despite the tools being built and developed by a company LARGER than Workday? Then this is a great place for you! If you're desperate, Workday is a great company to coast at while you look for better opportunities.

During the February layoffs, senior Global Revenue Operations and CX leadership should have been evaluated more critically. There is little visible strategic contribution, minimal guidance to the deal desk, and limited understanding of the business. While frontline teams carry the load, executive travel and optics suggest a disconnect from operational realities. The same concern applies to the current Chief Commercial Officer leadership. Many of the strategic issues that developed under the prior CEO remain unaddressed. There is no clear direction for the business, and revenue teams lack the alignment and support needed to succeed. If these leadership gaps are not addressed quickly, the impact on deal desk performance and overall sales attainment will continue to compound.
