Good company with lots of benefits - Senior Software Engineer Workday Employee Review

Workday is a truly values-driven company, and you can feel it every day. We’re in the middle of an exciting transformation to drive more innovation and speed, and while that has meant making some tough decisions, those decisions are always grounded in our core values. Employees and customers are consistently kept at the center, and there’s a real sense that doing what’s right guides how we operate and where we’re going as a company.

Decision-making can sometimes feel slow and unclear, as it’s not always obvious who has true ownership or final say. In a few areas, especially HR, leadership can feel more oriented around selling and positioning our products than around deep, hands-on practitioner experience, which occasionally creates a gap between strategy and the day-to-day needs of employees and managers.

If you land with the right team and manager, it's great. Good AI tools for productivity. At least the reign of Carl's awkward and forced sensitivity is over.

Have started eliminating all remote roles. Recent RIFs have started toxic "land grabs" and VP infighting. Keep chasing the next shiny new object instead of addressing toxic mismanagement.
