Pros: Started paying super competitively as of November 2013 due to the IPO. Management cares about you, and the workplace is friendly. It has an upbeat college atmosphere where you're expected to be extremely social.

Cons: Some people spend all their time here. But that may be simply because they like it, not because they have to. People are often loud, joking, and jolly, which is mostly a pro but sometimes is distracting from work. You'll need some noise-canceling headphones if you want to concentrate.

Pros: Very vibrant atmosphere, free sodas! They really care about me. I feel loved.

Cons: A ton of pressure. Very demanding.

Pros: There are tons of reasons why Workday is a great place. Although others are saying the culture is deteriorating, it is still very good. Work-life balance is great, and business prospects look good overall.

Cons: What a lot of people don't see is that the hiring bar is getting lower and lower because the company is trying to expand. Quality over quantity should be the mindset in recruiting. As a new grad, I've seen extremely brilliant (and friendly) people get rejected from this company, and not-so-brilliant people get in, which astounds me. Salary is a huge issue. Everyone knows Workday does not pay enough, probably 15k under the market for new grads alone. If we want Workday's engineering reputation to increase, you cannot continue paying people so little. You are giving the truly talented engineers fewer reasons to choose Workday over other companies.
