Not a place for growth

Pros

Friendly environment. Many people do enjoy working there and are comfortable in their position. Great program for new college grads.

Cons

Although they walk around with smiles and give compliments, the leadership is obviously inauthentic. They will not be honest with you about job performance or opportunities and won't take the time to help you grow. The culture and managers appear to only be focused on weakness and have no idea nor make the effort how to leverage your strengths. The irony is that this is a company that provides human capital management technology and yet this is not a very human-centric company. No 401k match.

Pros

Good Worklife balance. Spend $$ on employee events.

Cons

Everyone that i worked with was either related or a former colleague of management. Didn't seem that the most qualified person was hired, just the more people you knew at Workday, the more likely you were to get hired/promoted. There is no career path for the few that are hired on as worker bees. The company tries hard to maintains it's image as a "great place to work".
