Software Development Manager Interview Experience - Dublin, Ireland
Process
The interview process involved two phone interviews, one on-site interview day at the company, and another video interview.
Calls were conducted with managers from different areas.
The on-site interviews were with other managers, one developer, and one QA manager. Following that, a video call was held with two product managers.
Overall, everything was great, but I was unable to accept the offer for personal reasons.
My only negative feedback pertains to the reimbursement process for the trip to Dublin. While the plane tickets were paid for, I was required to cover the hotel and meal expenses myself and then request reimbursement, which I did immediately upon returning home.
This occurred in June, and I still have not received the money back. I can't shake the feeling this delay is linked to my decision not to accept the offer.

Workday is a company that wants to develop and retain its talent by investing directly in them. Lots of work to do that keeps me busy all day. There is no downtime, which is good for me; the day goes by quickly. My manager is great, very willing to teach new skills, making me more valuable to the entire team.Cons: Proprietary programming languages (domain-specific languages or internal scripting languages) slowly take you away from the rest of the industry. Companies have grown to a size that growth is now slow. Emphasis on collaboration is taken to an extreme that it slows down and takes innovation off the table.
