      Pros

      Great culture, support and some of the best people I've ever worked with.

      Cons

      Sales success can be difficult and requires a strong focus and commitment. Can take over a year to make your first sale due to long sales cycles...

      Workday's review for Software Engineers in Apps

      Software development engineer in test in applications

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great lifestyle. Get to learn a lot about the company and even as an entry position you are given respect. Lots of new and interesting technology to learn. Steep learning curve, but once you get over that hump it becomes easier to make new applications. Overall a great company to work. The company has lots of perks and great team outings. The company tries to keep a happy and very comfortable atmosphere.

      Cons

      The technology used puts current employees into a pigeon hole. Software engineers are using a proprietary coding language that is developed by Workday. Everything is done in two specific graph like languages. If you stay to long in the company your coding skills will get dull. Workday puts their employees in a comfort zone that can be good for some but bad for others trying to increase their knowledge in the coding and tech world. My advice would be that if you join Workday's apps team, experience it for a year and either transfer to another group or look for something more challenging elsewhere. Many will say there is no company politics but from my personal experience there is quite a bit. The company portrays this image of happy and everything is great but that creates more of a frustration for others, because instead of saying the problem out front issues and discomforts just get bottled up. Lastly the company encourages employees to seek out different groups within the company but unfortunately since each team I have seen has such limited resources that it can take up to 2 years before any kind of talk about moving occurs.
