Culture issues stemming from management

Pros

The Workday product is amazing. The benefits and perks are just as amazing.

Cons

The culture in the Salt Lake office, specifically the Finance department, does not align with the Workday culture that the company prides itself on. The issue stems from the upper management and the way they treat individual contributors in their organization. It is very rare that management participates in office activities and events. Although we are given unlimited paid time off, some managers make it extremely difficult to take any time off. Employees are constantly bullied by upper management and it starts to affect the entire department morale. There is an obvious problem with favoritism as well.

Pros

Some colleagues are nice Nothing else I can think of

Cons

Micromanagement to the core. Very much toxic culture. Employees in this specific department are treated like they don’t even exist. It is just one person’s rule here. None of your interests or opinions are valued upon. They pretend And sugar coat things but no value for your skills. Any one can do anything. Training your backup will be your only job in the end.

Pros

Good IPO; can't think of much else.

Cons

Peoplesoft recreated: product, engineering culture, old boys network, and all that. Top-down, unimaginative, micromanagement.
