### "Useful admin tool !"

November 13, 2024

4.0

I use workday to add my holiday, view other team member's holiday, check payroll details and understand the company structure.

Pros

I think it is a good way to organise all your admin data in one space, get all the appropriate contacts and understand the organisation's structure. It is quite easy to use.

Cons

Imputing your holiday is a bit challenging as it's not very intuitive on how to add half days and also you don't get a yearly view of your holiday and all the months.

### "Efficient and Comprehensive HR Solution"

November 1, 2024

4.0

My overall experience with Workday HCM has been positive. It’s a powerful tool with a lot of features that help manage HR tasks effectively. While there’s a bit of a learning curve, once you get used to it, it really supports productivity and data management

Pros

it makes navigating HR tasks a lot easier. Plus, the reporting and analytics tools are super helpful for keeping track of workforce data in real-time.

Cons

Sometimes, Workday HCM can feel a bit complex, especially with certain features that require multiple steps. It would be great if some processes were streamlined for quicker access. for example there are some duplicate info can be removed from the forms

### "Sounds good at board level - very poor user experience"

September 27, 2024

1.0

My workday experiences have been worse than poor. Its almost as if its been deliberately designed to irritate me while I'm trying to get my work done!

Pros

Very little. My experience of Workday implementations are that they are over engineered, and seem to exist for the sake of the ego of executives rather than the users

Cons

Too many obscure fields, and too few relevant fields. Too many clicks to achieve anything

### "A very comprehensive functionality "

November 18, 2024

4.0

My company uses it for work absence management, for employee pay grade, curriculum, position level, internal job search, etc. It does have a great variety of functions.

Pros

It has a plethora of functions, the layout is very detailed

Cons

The annual leave balance is fiddly to be displayed. The request for half days off rather than full days is also fiddly to submit.

### "Not the finest-looking website, but it definitely does the job"

September 24, 2024

5.0

Largely positive, I can't really complain as the website does ultimately offer me everything I need

Pros

The website incorporates aspects such as pay, reviews, meetings/discussions, all personal historic job documentation, and absence. It's easy to use and I can quickly see when my teammates are planning annual leave, review my pay situation and so on.

Cons

The website feels a bit dated aesthetically, and is sometimes a bit clunky when it comes to pages regarding absence/annual leave - it feels like there are multiple ways to see the same end result.

My overall experience has been positive as it has allowed me to access all my important employee information in one place.
