Pros: Overall benefits are good, but over the years, benefit costs have been rising. WLB is well valued on most teams.

Cons: Not the greatest compensation, but it's fair.

Pros: My team is very challenging, but often rewarding.

Cons: A lot of teams are asleep. As a DevOps engineer, I find it very frustrating that nobody has a clue where/how their software runs, and even moreso that they are unwilling to improve and learn.

Pros: Once a great place—now lost to politics and poor leadership. Workday used to offer an excellent work-life balance, a genuine employee-first culture, and solid compensation (base + RSUs + bonus). Unfortunately, much of that has eroded. Internal politics now run unchecked, with toxic dev team leaders protected instead of held accountable. Senior management often avoids conflict resolution, acting more like messengers than leaders. The company feels increasingly misaligned—favoring dysfunction over collaboration. It’s disheartening to see such a promising workplace lose its core values. I'm out due to politics, will never return to this org.

Cons: A culture of politics over performance. My experience at Workday was marked by poor leadership accountability and a lack of effective conflict resolution. Toxic behavior among certain dev team leads was tolerated, if not rewarded, while management failed to intervene or foster a collaborative culture. Senior leaders often took a passive stance—acting more as messengers than problem-solvers—leaving high-performing teams vulnerable to internal sabotage. If you're someone who values transparency, fairness, and leadership that actually leads, tread carefully.
