Pros

- The "Workday Way" is real and employees are a priority - Culture is still ingrained in the company, and people are pleasant to work with in general - Working to eliminate bureaucracy (and Aneel wants you to talk to him about it) - Great benefits, both insurance wise and also at work (food, snacks, events)

Cons

- Massive growth can create technological challenges - No free meals (yet..?) - Comp/bonus/stock is not to the "top tier" levels but it's pretty good overall

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.
