Pros

Benefits. Competitive salary. Fantastic people to work with (unfortunately lots of those people lost their jobs)

Cons

Its such a shame. When I started in Workday it was a vibrant and exciting place to be. They really nurtured the culture and the wellbeing of employees. We felt appreciated and worked really hard. Things changed when Carl entered the picture. Layoffs began. Budgets were cut or became non existent, which in turn resulted in no career progression or promotions. People stopped coming into the office even though it was mandated to do 50%. Some of the most talented and dedicated QA's, developers and PMs were let go from our team and many other teams. The employees made Workday a great place, i'm thankful for them. We are just a cog in the wheel at the end of the day.

Advice to Management

Have a look at the guy who's running the company and look at the feedback you have received on Glassdoor......
