1. Old Oracle and Peoplesoft employees made this place toxic and not willing to listen to input and others points of view of experienced professionals.
2. I moved here from out of state to join what I thought was progressive company. I was with a financial software best of breed technology provider and was anxious to find out what seemingly made Workday a popular industry offering.
3. Found out fast that I had very little input into functionality and roadmap for which I am SME with over 20 years of experience.
4. For a company which has foundation in HCM, found employee review process completely subjective. No really KPI or quantitative metrics used to measure employee value or effectiveness. No transparency or methodology used for measuring employee contribution.
5. Realize if you join annual raises small - Workday likes to reward RSU to keep employees satisfied.
6. Technology 100% proprietary leading to frustration, inflexibility and rate of new development.
7. Workday claims UX is great. Not my expire either at all. No menu navigation; no integration with external widgets. Grid control not flexibility and does not support personalization include public and private data views.
8. If you are a experienced technical candidate with SDLC experience but not familiar with Workday - ASK TO SEE W DEMO OF PRODUCT AFTER SIGNING NDA. After leaving Workday every user I come across in other companies that use Workday Financials are NOT AT ALL fans of UX.
