Pros

Snack program Workday products are not bad

Cons

1. Management is inadequate, don't know how to motivate employees, like to give orders and create fear. This company has by far the worst management (both upper and middle) I have ever seen. 2. Fake Workday's "aloha" culture. Employees feel pressured into answering positively to numerous surveys Workday imposes on them to boost up its image as "the best employer". 3. Strange culture of data hogging. People are fearful of sharing information and data, which is detrimental to productivity.

Pros

Peers/ co-workers, flexibility, genuine nice co-workers

Cons

Lack of integrity and honesty. Sr, Director visited SLC two months ago and held 1:1 meetings to find out what she can do better and tell her something she did know. It was all smoke and mirrors and a waste of travel budget as they laid us all off. Workday get your crap together. You let go of some amazing, knowledgeable individuals that could’ve been moved to other orgs/locations but instead you decided to hand them their walking papers.
