Compensation, flexibility (if you have prior experience).
Cons
Poor management communication & expectations consistently move, contradicting statements during one-on-ones, not the job I signed up for due to becoming HR generalists rather than being able to specialize in a certain area.

Thank you for sharing your experience at Workday. It is fantastic to hear you've enjoyed the culture. We are pleased to hear life as a Workmate is a good one!
Great people, benefits, culture, and pay. Lots of "workmates" with long tenures (10+ years). I truly wanted to retire from Workday!
Cons
Leadership changes freaked a lot of people out. Things felt unstable within the org for the last year (2025). The culture shifted from one that focused on employee growth to adopt all AI at all costs, and do it yesterday! It was extremely stressful to learn so much, so quickly, and create your own use cases and custom workflows - then to ultimately be laid off despite significant contributions.
