      Pros

      - Flex work (50/50) - Decent salary - Competent and talented colleagues - Snack program

      Cons

      - Some woeful middle managers. It seems you can be terrible at what you do as long as you have a smile on your face. - Senior management are disconnected and disingenuous. I reported a truly awful manager who has been damaging the team culture across the department for quite a while. My complaints were completely ignored and my next performance review (for the first time in many years) was marked down. - New CEO doesn't seem genuine at all. - Compensation packages are shrinking by the the minute,

      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.
