Workday

• Friendly and cooperative engineering organization
• RSU Stock Plan
• Parental, disability leave at 100% of salary

• Constant reorgs mean lost knowledge and shifting priorities.
• Failure to retain key players.
• Some managers are toxic and don't care about their employees.
• The tech stack is a decade old.
• The customer needs an engineer to configure the app.
• Failure to recognize the product has a bad reputation with customers.

Vet engineering managers extremely carefully. Don't lay off the employees who will innovate, but also retain employees that are a drag on the business. Competitors are going to steal your market share unless you're able to deliver features fast, but your platform organization is lost, unwilling to change and adapt to face the challenge of providing an application that is a delight for customers to use.
