      - A very large scale product, a lot of learning of different technologies. - Best cultured company - Employee value - Perks - Decent salary - Strong leadership

      Cons

      - If you are working on XO App dev ( XO is workday's proprietary metadata driven functional language) , you don't get to work on real world programming language. If you consider applying to other places then you might find it challenging

      Pros

      Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

      Cons

      Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
