### "Overall, this is an incredible experience. ...Worthful Workhuman"

August 7, 2024

5.0

Overall experience is wonderful. 10/10 rating and highly recommendable application to recognize each other within an organization.

Pros

The approval process aligned with organization organogram. Easy redemption process. Varieties of products and recommendations of products can be redeemed with available points. gift cards and products availability with minimum number point i.e. below 50 points.

Cons

This point to be considered as Feeback rather than "cons". I feel more if I see amazon/Flipkart Gift cards availability in Workhuman portal.

### "What's surprising is that Workhuman does better than expected as a corporate rewards tool"

June 16, 2026

5.0

Employees who have been quiet and have not promoted themselves are getting seen on the "public" feed now. We use hashtags for company values so that people will remember.

Pros

Workhuman did send those points via slack without totally crashing, and I was surprised because all of our internal technology crashes every time we try to do something. All levels of workers (including the new junior starters) and managers both use Workhuman to give gift cards. In less than an hour, we were able to link everyone into our HRIS system. People are using GIFs in the feed; it kind of feels like some sort of bizarre social network for work.

Cons

When I took a week long break from work last month, I had no choice but to lose what I wanted to give to my team. Support is strictly email based and takes six days to respond back on urgent bug fixes. Taxes applied to rewards are terrible too.

### "The best employee recognition tool! "

July 16, 2025

5.0

Very positive - expect for the high points and limitations to redeem them. It has been a great experience on Workhuman

Pros

The ease of use of the platform and the intuitive nature of the features. I have used the platform for years now and recognised many coworkers

Cons

The fact that the number of partners is limited. As a result points can't be redeemed in some major retail shops. A good alternative to that could be to make it possible to redeem on temporary bank card. Another issue is the fact that some items are very overpriced when reedeming on the platform directly against points instead of a voucher for let's say Argos

### "Good support provided for my organization for rewards"

January 27, 2025

4.0

Have been using workhuman for my current organization and I have no complaints with the functionality. I wish they could add more local brands for points redemption.

Pros

Searches are clean and fast. Functionalities are easily accessible and without any lag or hanging.

Cons

Could provide more redeem options. Most of the brands are not ones I would use.

### "10/10 Great Program!"

February 3, 2025

5.0

Overall my experience with Workhuman is great! The company I work for has used it for many years and I love it as a recognition tool!

Pros

I love how easy it is to recognize a coworker and give them kudos for their hard work. The website is so easy to navigate making it very user friendly. Plus having so many options in the storefront is always a plus!

Cons

Sometime I wish the filters in the storefront had more option. I also with the filters would stay when you select a category, but other than that it's great.

### "Working and Being Human"

January 13, 2025

5.0

Workhuman has been a great tool for recognizing the hard work that might otherwise go unrecognized by team members. It's important to remember in a work environment that we're all human by nature and appreciate thanks and acknowledgement for the extra hard work that we accomplish beyond our day to day roles and responsibilities.

Pros

The platform is an easy to use and flexible tool that allows you to publicly acknowledge the accomplishments of your co-workers so that others know and see that they are going above and beyond.

Cons

I wish there were more options for redeeming impact award credits around different travel activities/excursions/etc.

### "Great places to get all the vouchers you need in one place!"

January 30, 2025

5.0

My experience was all great. I have never had any problems with Workhuman. From browsing available items per category to redeeming vouchers, it's a lit. The site is responsive, easy to navigate, and most of all, it's user-friendly. I would definitely recommend this.

Pros

My favorite thing about Workhuman is how simple it is to purchase or redeem gift cards. The fact that using the voucher to apply it to any of your purchases or as a gift will not take you long makes it incredibly convenient. It will ask you to double-check the information before using the voucher to ensure that you will not make any mistakes. It allows time for review prior to submission. Additionally, the code will be available in a matter of minutes.

Cons

If I were to search for one thing, it would be the variety of gift card amounts that I could use. It would be fantastic if they let you enter any custom amount that you could use as a voucher.

### "Recognition Made Easy"

January 31, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with the Workhuman platform has been fantastic; as mentioned above, it makes recognizing and celebrating my colleagues' achievements a delightful part of my workday.

Pros

Seamless integration and a user-friendly interface make recognizing and celebrating my colleagues' achievements straightforward and rewarding.

Cons

While I appreciate the variety of gift cards available on the Workhuman platform, I've noticed some inconsistencies with the merchants, particularly with grocery stores. It would be great to have a more stable selection, as some of my frequently requested options seem to change regularly.

Very Positive. Very easy to use. I was very convenient to be able to submit co-workers right after the activity that you wanted to recognize happens.

Pros

I liked being able to send recognitions to colleagues after projects. Very easy to use platform.

Cons

There were sometimes when it was hard to pick between choices, but I think that was more of the config and not the tool itself.

Pros

It's an incentive - I feel recognized, and it can be redeemable for items I would buy for myself which I appreciate.

Cons

I'm having issues receiving my redeemed gifts, it could be because of the holidays but I find it a little of an inconvenience since you need to sign off and you never know when the delivery is out so you can receive your gift.
