      Pros

      * Great Work-Life Balance * Benefits are overall good * If you work hard, you can move up fairly easily.

      Cons

      Depending on which part of the company you are, you may be constrained to their proprietary language which isn't great if you are looking to develop skills that are easily transferable, so expect to keep leet coding while working or working some extra hours on innovation projects to keep your skills up.

      Pros

      Great people, benefits, culture, and pay. Lots of "workmates" with long tenures (10+ years). I truly wanted to retire from Workday!

      Cons

      Leadership changes freaked a lot of people out. Things felt unstable within the org for the last year (2025). The culture shifted from one that focused on employee growth to adopt all AI at all costs, and do it yesterday! It was extremely stressful to learn so much, so quickly, and create your own use cases and custom workflows - then to ultimately be laid off despite significant contributions.
