Laid-back attitude, the ability to work from home sometimes, and good work-life balance are all great parts of working at Workday. Also, the company is successful, and generally, people are upbeat. Nobody gets fired here. So, considering the company outlook, this is a great place to work if your priority is job security and low stress.
Limited exposure to widely used frameworks and development tools. This is especially true for Application Developers.
On the Tools team, you get more exposure, but it's mostly just Java and a little bit of XML processing.
The problem is a "Not Invented Here" attitude, which results in more work for you and fewer employable skills to gain.
A little too much company "kool-aid"; sometimes the hype gets to me.
Not all managers are top-notch (they get fired more rarely than employees), and some are just plain ineffective and annoying (but most of them were at least developers at some point).
Also, pay is low.
Give your employees enough work to feel like they are productive.
Don't be a nervous nanny; nobody likes a micromanager (a little bit of an epidemic here).
Treat your employees like adults, not kids.

I had a couple of interviews with no follow-up. They were mostly behavioral and culture fit questions. I was applying for a military veteran program, and I guess the Marine who interviewed me didn't like how I served.
