Review from Operations Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Review from Communications Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Base and total comp are aligned with market rate, but I also joined the company in the past 6 months so whether that continues to be the case remains to be seen.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Family Healthcare, flex PTO, and RSU Bonus plan

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

We're underpaid comparatively in the market, with no capacity for transparent oay reviews

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

The benefits here show that the executive team cares about employee wellbeing.

Review from Legal Dept · Posted 8 days ago

The ability to earn Restricted Stock Units

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

I think I am fairly paid for the work I do and the RSU's really boost my package

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

All of it, including the thank you Fridays. Looking forward to reaching 10 years to get 6 weeks sabbatical.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

If Workday truly valued their employees, a cost of living adjustment to keep up with the pace of inflation would go a long way.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 3 days ago

There is disparity in work and pay at the same level. manager lacks vision, competence and is not fit to the culture. Good work, recognition and pay parity will make me feel better"

Review from HR Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Long term employees base pay isn't rising up to market standards. External hires for similar position are getting paid more in base pay.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

The cost of living situation in many countries are very high in the past few years and there hasn't been any review of our salary.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 5 days ago

Compensation isn't "right sized", so my pay is increasing at a lower rate than what new people being hired are starting at.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

1) were undepaid comparatively in the market 2) the tam is incredibly limited by AE 3) there is a culture of blaming the sales team at workday, with no accountability for how we as a company have got there.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

there was a change in titles for new employees going forward but they didn't take people who were below that to the new baseline when they made the announcement. there's a pay difference and it doesn't feel fair. there was only 4 of us and it should have been automatic.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 8 days ago

More compensation as well as better treatment

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Not a good raise/no stock even after giving your 100% to the company in first year of joining

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Employees who have been here longer are often underpaid

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Compensation movements are slower than a snail even if you have received great rating and feedback. Compensation is not as per market level.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Market pay adjustment. I am way below market rate despite performing to a high level. Stop changing stack ranking levels based on a force distribution - this is a morale killer. Workday are using this as an excuse to reduce compensation.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

After a year of successful quarterly reviews I unexpectedly got the lowest performance score, 50% bonus reduction, no raise and no stock. First time since many years since I joined.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Transparency and clear performance review assessment

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

I would like to highlight a significant inequity regarding the recent transition from a one-year vesting cliff to immediate quarterly vesting. While I understand the value of the new policy for recent hires, it has created a scenario where employees with more tenure are effectively penalized; those

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

It shoukd be a good pldve for sll bit hust a few

Review from IT Dept · Posted 8 days ago

No one addresses childcare support which is crippling people's finances, making them lose 40% of their buying power. They don't adjust your pay with inflation.

Review from Marketing Dept · Posted 8 days ago

As a contractor I have limited benefits.

Review from Marketing Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Pay was reduced by 15% compared to inflation, last yr 1.2% pay rise, something closer to 4-5% needed.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

My base pay should be equivalent to the market price across the global locations based on experience, and not only based on region wise market price. It should be on par with my counterparts across regions to have a collaborative work environment.
