Pros

*Product is best in class but competitors are catching up *An AE is not competing with other internal reps for budget *Every HR department knows you

Cons

*Turnover in field management - hired outside from other big tech firms - changed strategy and culture *The market is tougher - Competitors are getting better and in some spaces are head and shoulders above *Experience is totally manager dependent

Pros

Great company and great technology, they are trying to provide a consistent Workday life across all departments that also takes into account success with all its employees, and want to learn where they could have been even better (Unfortunately the WE leadership team aren't great about trying to understand feedback and why it might bother members of their team effected by it. (not all leadership department are prepared to hold themselves accountable to making any improves that they simply disagree with, nt even open to any discussion first.

Cons

The Workday Education leadership team overall rejects and ignores any feedback they dislike or disagree with; and often time enforce policies that are not written for the benefit or satisfaction of the instructor or content creator, making this unenjoyable to deal with it, yet no functional feedback message for affecting change.
