Pluspunten

When I started working here, there was a genuine family feel and support culture under Aneel as CEO. It felt like everyone had a voice and People Leaders could openly engage with fellow senior managers for support on any topic. There were lots of fun events to attend during the day and in the evenings. It had a real buzz about the place.

Minpunten

It all changed under the current CEO Eschenbach, where all that was important was performance. The culture became somewhat toxic as local leaders did not fully understand what this new performance culture was and how it should be implemented. So it became a strategy for re-orgs again and again with many individuals exiting the business over and over. This had a terrible impact on the culture and many workmates felt they were being picked on as a way to reduce headcount. I was privy to many leader conversations that made me feel very uncomfortable at times. Many of the internal programmes were also being cut in a very unapologetic way. To describe the is company in a single word, I would choose 'nasty'.

Pluspunten

Great people, benefits, culture, and pay. Lots of "workmates" with long tenures (10+ years). I truly wanted to retire from Workday!

Minpunten

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.
