Pluspunten

Free snacks, good dental and medical benefits. Can bring pets (dogs) to work. The product is amazing and the vision of the company is good but there are many bad managers and there is no formal 360 feedback to control their performance. Workday has a great product and leadership has a great vision, but sadly it is losing great talent because of the toxic work culture created by new managers in the middle management.

Minpunten

The culture of the company is deteriorating. There are too many managers but less individual contributors, so the individual contributors get buried with workload. While the new managers are busy playing politics to secure their positions. The managers throw their direct reports under the bus to score points with internal clients and upper management. The worker bees feel dissatisfied, undervalued and disrespected. As a result the attrition rate is very high and something needs to be done to change the culture.

Pluspunten

Excellent engineering talent and knowledgeable coworkers. Strong engineering culture with high code quality standards. Modern technology stack and opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise software. Good work-life balance compared to many tech companies. Competitive compensation, benefits, and employee perks. Collaborative environment with supportive teammates. Opportunities to learn new technologies and grow technically. Stable development processes and mature SDLC practices. Strong emphasis on testing, code reviews, and software quality. Flexible work arrangements (depending on team).

Minpunten

Large organization means decision-making can be slow. Significant amount of process and bureaucracy before changes reach production. Cross-team dependencies can slow delivery. Career growth can depend on organizational priorities and manager support. Frequent reorganizations can shift priorities and disrupt long-term projects. Innovation may move slower than at smaller startups. Internal tools and processes can sometimes feel overly complex. Communication between teams can occasionally be inconsistent. Like much of the tech industry, the company has experienced layoffs, creating uncertainty for some employees. Promotions can take time and require navigating multiple approval levels.
