What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Let me not be bored, our team has long term goals/projects to work on but everything has to go through so many levels of management we can hardly ever make any progress.

Review from Engineering Dept

No having meaningful work, bad manager

Review from HR Dept

Incredibly toxic culture, sharing honest opinions about work and priorities is not considered safe

Review from HR Dept

Focus on employees, focus on customers, be more transparent, and have a strategy

Review from Product Dept

The entire system is based on metrics so heavily it's impossible to get through

Review from Engineering Dept

Only appreciation received is in words not terms of compensation movements or perks or benefits. Too many changes happening in the company which creates anxiety

Review from Engineering Dept

The company culture has tanked in the last few years due to poor mangement and a toxic political atmosphere. Hire the right people - look from within the company first as there are some super people just waiting to make a huge positive impact. Many external hires over the past years have been bad.

Review from Engineering Dept

I'm just not excited about my work. There's no transparency about what we're working on in the future right now so it's hard to be enthuasiastic

Review from Engineering Dept

Treat everyone tge sane abd nit a fanfare for a few

Review from IT Dept

Workload, pressure and hard to get a grasp in our direction as marketing says one thing and our tools and product say another

Review from Customer Success Dept

I think we are going all-in to a lot of new stuff but most people around me especially seniors don't even know that much about it so it can be a bit frustrating.

Review from Engineering Dept

I think the current demands at work does not provide a healthy work-life balance

Review from Customer Support Dept

Organizational Change is based on the final ROI versus the impact it actually ends up having on hardworking/high performing workmates

Review from Finance Dept

just so boring, need more visionary leaders and skip-level leaders

Review from HR Dept

Don't just reward the "superstars" with all the raises and bonuses. It's not just one superstar that's needed to "row the boat!"

Review from Engineering Dept

Workday's focus has been on the customers it supports, but those customers are the companies who use Workday. Most dissatisfaction comes from end-users (employees) of Workday's customers as well as candidates applying for roles with Workday's customers. The main complaints are navigability and UI.

Review from IT Dept

I'm in the wrong role. I feel as though I was set up to fail. I feel as though after all of my contributions, Workday no longer wants me to develop in a space I have been for greater than a decade. I feel as though I will be laid off in a future round if I do not leave on my own.

Review from Finance Dept

Time at company not valued

Review from Engineering Dept

Its work, theres lots to do and its not riveting, but its work im beyond happy to have work
