Pros

Pay, coworkers are generally great to work with. Cautiously optimistic that Aneel can correct all the harm that has taken place over the last 2-3 years

Cons

Culture has diminished. Used to feel valued but now we are numbers. Been tough watching people I grew up with in the company be let go. No trust in executive leadership. New, recertification process and proctor testing shows your how much they trust thier employees. So much for core values of integrity and profitability.

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.
