      Love Workday, Hated the Layoffs

      Sr. proposal manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      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.

      Strong people and process discipline, but recent shifts have created uncertainty

      Senior proposal manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Workday has many genuinely talented and thoughtful people who care about doing things the right way. Cross-functional collaboration is generally strong, and the company has historically invested in scalable processes and customer trust. In proposal management specifically, there is meaningful exposure to complex, enterprise-level work that builds strong pattern recognition and stakeholder management skills. Compensation and benefits have been competitive, and many teams maintain a supportive day-to-day culture.

      Cons

      Like many large tech companies, Workday has been navigating ongoing organizational and market shifts, which has introduced periods of uncertainty and reprioritization. In some areas, resourcing and workload balance can become stretched, particularly in high-volume deal environments. As the company continues evolving its AI and efficiency strategy, some functions may feel pressure around role clarity and long-term positioning.
