We understand how difficult this news has been. The decision to do position eliminations across the company was incredibly tough. We’re grateful for the hard work and contribution of every Workmate impacted, and we remain committed to supporting them through this transition.

Not a great culture

Pros

There are some great people here.

Cons

Workplace culture has at points felt non-existent with challenges around RTO. Office attendance targets do nothing to encourage attendance and Workday does not seem to understand its role in making the office a place where people want to be. Morale is incredibly low after a round of layoffs where excellent colleagues were let go, resulting in significantly increased workload for those of us left behind.
