Pros

Workday is an amazing company. The culture of the company as a whole is remarkable. Compensation for this role is very strong.

Cons

Workday is an amazing company, however this department is a black hole. They have no real plan to get CSDs (even the great ones) out of this department into other sales roles. The management team is more like a gossiping high school girl click rather than a leadership group.

Pros

- good benefits - laid-back environment although it depends on the team

Cons

- as others said, you need to know the right people to advance in career - career management is non-existent (poor goal setting, limited career discussions, only formal evaluations without defining a clear career path) - no clear definition of who does what and therefore your title/level in the organization is all that matters for your voice to be heard - high-level management changes that negatively affect day to day operations

Awful, terrible place for engineers

Pros

Snacks are good, lots of soda.

Cons

If you are an engineer, I would recommend not working here. No matter how they try to paint it, XO is a career killer. Other companies are wising up to the fact that propriety technology and re-inventing the wheels does not make for good engineering. Salaries are waaaaay too low to be learning such a useless skill.
