Pros

From top to bottom, Workday is a company with a generally positive vibe. My leaders and my co-workers genuinely care about me and my family and my professional growth. People love to collaborate here and you can count on peers to have the best intentions in any situation. At Workday, a great majority of us are optimistic about the direction of the product, about our customers and about each project ahead.

Cons

There is some uncertainty as to how the company will look in 10 years as we continue to grow. But this does not impact our day to day lives and the company has adapted well to change.

Pros

Excellent engineering talent and knowledgeable coworkers. Strong engineering culture with high code quality standards. Modern technology stack and opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise software. Good work-life balance compared to many tech companies. Competitive compensation, benefits, and employee perks. Collaborative environment with supportive teammates. Opportunities to learn new technologies and grow technically. Stable development processes and mature SDLC practices. Strong emphasis on testing, code reviews, and software quality. Flexible work arrangements (depending on team).

Cons

Large organization means decision-making can be slow. Significant amount of process and bureaucracy before changes reach production. Cross-team dependencies can slow delivery. Career growth can depend on organizational priorities and manager support. Frequent reorganizations can shift priorities and disrupt long-term projects. Innovation may move slower than at smaller startups. Internal tools and processes can sometimes feel overly complex. Communication between teams can occasionally be inconsistent. Like much of the tech industry, the company has experienced layoffs, creating uncertainty for some employees. Promotions can take time and require navigating multiple approval levels.
