Workday reviews

Leadership does not consistently embody the company’s stated core values, which can undermine trust. Employees who excel in their roles but challenge established processes may face risks, including potential layoffs. Excellent engineers and managers were let it go in the last layoff due VP's politics. Some VP-level promotions appear to prioritize factors other than technical expertise in critical product areas, which can hinder effective decision-making. The technology stack is outdated and limited, and there is limited focus on innovation or a clear long-term vision, often due to misaligned leadership priorities.

Its such a shame. When I started in Workday it was a vibrant and exciting place to be. They really nurtured the culture and the wellbeing of employees. We felt appreciated and worked really hard. Things changed when Carl entered the picture. Layoffs began. Budgets were cut or became non existent, which in turn resulted in no career progression or promotions. People stopped coming into the office even though it was mandated to do 50%. Some of the most talented and dedicated QA's, developers and PMs were let go from our team and many other teams. The employees made Workday a great place, i'm thankful for them. We are just a cog in the wheel at the end of the day.
