      Pros

      Snack program, flexibility to work remotely, many co-workers are fantastic, bright colleagues. What Workday "say's" they stand for. Various events to bring the larger Workday population together.

      Cons

      Next to no ability to grow professionally. Significant hurdles from middle management layer. Career limiting in many areas. Shameful where an employee's mood is predicated upon what kind of a mood the manager is in or whether the employee needs to deal with the manager. Common mood on the team of walking on "egg shells". Around Workday - frequent lowering of morale. What was acceptable one day, changes next week, and right back to the original a week after that.....

      Pros

      Good people throughout the organization. Maniacal Focus on employee and customer satisfaction is permeated throughout the company. Very satisfied customer base and most of the employees are loyal to Workday.

      Cons

      1. Sometimes the product strategy seems to be fragmented and can shift at the whims of the CEO. Seems like they are trying to do too many things at once at times. 2. Will the CEO scale and lead them to be a much larger company or is he a better fit for <$1 billion revenue companies?

      Pros

      They offer mediocre snacks for free, they have "unlimited" PTO, and they are by a BART station.

      Cons

      They have a reputation of being a great company to work for but in reality this is only true if you are content doing the minimum and not growing your career. They hire into roles and give you the smallest "promotions" possible.
