      Pros

      Excellent at hiding the UGLINESS behind the walls. PR marketing done an excellent job at spreading "#1 company to work for" propaganda.

      Cons

      All using proprietary language, proprietary technologies means you will leave here with skills untransferable in the real world and a gapping hole in your resume. FIVE plus people doing the job of one person is the norm, and who live off the work of the early real engineers. Still impresed? Senior rank staff are composed of the same ol gang of recycled rejects bouncing from peoplesoft, orcl, sap who are just here for the perks and "prestiage" of holding an inflated job title at a brand name outfit. Managers here are strictly politiking paper pushers!

      Pros

      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.
