Pros

Nice pantry with lots of free drinks and food. More female employees comparing to other software company.

Cons

- limited training provided to new employees even Workday is a “HR” software company - management is busy with playing politics instead of focusing on the real work and solving the critical issues - salary is relatively lower than market rate - for CSD your success is purely based on your relationship with your AEs. If you have a good relationship with AEs your will definitely achieve or even overachieve your target. If not you will screw up for sure. I would not recommend anyone to join workday as a CSD.

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.
