      Workday is not what it used to be!

      Pros

      Aneel and Dave started this with a great vision but it's reached a point where it is declining.

      Cons

      As it is growing, leaders are not focused on employees or product. It's become more bureaucratic and political. It feels like everyone is in to earn a title vs product growth.

      Financial Application Development - Stay Away

      Pros

      Great culture in certain teams. Flexible work schedule, free food, and get to work in Europe

      Cons

      Not very strong managers. Financial development use to have 60 developers. Today, there is 400 developers - just in one area! They over hired and brought in average developers - not very strong ... they just hired to meet the target number. The top manager is from Oracle and Microsoft. He can care less about his employees. All his managers are too scared to say anything. There is a turf war between Product Management and Development. The product's performance sucks. Large companies are not buying Financials. Development process is over engineered (taking Agile to the extreme!). Salaries are low, career growth for developers do not exist.
