Pros
There are great things about the company. While pay is below market, the benefits seem to make up for it in a big way. Leadership is probably the best I’ve ever encountered - they genuinely care about their people and look out for us. Aneel Bhusri is arguably the best CEO I’ve seen.
Cons
The size of the organization has created too many silos, many of which have lost touch with the philosophy of the company (“The Workday Way”). My manager failed to communicate effectively and was in over their head. Frequent shuffling and reorganization made for a difficult and somewhat degrading environment. And recent acquisitions, while good in a strategic sense, have not integrated well into the Workday ecosystem at all. Above all, don’t be surprised if you are hired for a role that was not as advertised or even misrepresented. To me that was the worst thing of all.
