### "Great tool for performance management"

July 31, 2018

5.0

Pros

Very well defined user interface. I log in to workday and go to my inbox and see what I need to review (Such as a manager evaluation). The navigation through the site is a breeze and you can do anything from reviewing compensation to reviewing the team time off.

Cons

I really don't have any con with the software. I never had to contact customer service so I really cannot evaluate part of the software.

### "Workday for Field Technicians"

December 6, 2019

5.0

Great app to connect employees with the company for HR reasons. Being able to submit my PTO time from my phone is super helpful, as well as tracking my paychecks so I know what money is coming in.

Pros

I like that I can contact anyone in the company from their Workday profile. This allows me to quickly contact the right people as soon as I need to contact them. I love being able to track my pay periods as well.

Cons

I don't like that the mobile version doesn't show the descriptions of open positions in my company. This may be a company setting from my employer, but I would be aware that the mobile app isn't as robust as the online version.

### "Workday"

February 14, 2023

4.0

I wouldn't recommend it for smaller to midsize companies. As it's a learning curve and isn't very user friendly.

Pros

Workday has it's positives once you have learned everything. You can do just about anything in it.

Cons

It is not very user friendly when it comes to learning the program or when you want to do something.

### "Great tool!"

July 25, 2019

5.0

Pros

I used Workday at my old job and really liked it. It was super simple to use.

Cons

I wish you could save settings. Ex: save the hours I typically worked each week so I didn't have to manually enter them every week if there were no changes.

### "Workday HCM"

July 28, 2023

4.0

It is a cloud based solution, so can be easily accessed from anywhere with internet connection.

Pros

It has intuitive and user friendly interface, making it easier for employees and HR professionals to navigate and use it efficiently.

Cons

It can be expensive for some organisations, especially small businesses. The pricing model is based on number of employees.

### "Solid program"

May 24, 2022

5.0

Pros

Managing payroll is very simple. Accessing and editing w-2 info is user friendly. Overall interface is not complicated or difficult to learn.

Cons

Reporting time is frustrating for many users at first. Needing to clock "in" to a meal time and then back "in" for regular time seems and is confusing. All said - it takes a bit for new employees to learn.

### "You Work Hard! Let Workday take the pain out of payroll"

March 30, 2019

5.0

I absolutely love it! It is so much easier to understand and the navigation is very simple.

Pros

It is so easy to navagate, use and understand. It takes a lot of the manual work out of the job. It can make calculations for international payrolls It can do retro calculations.

Cons

Certain things such as an unsupported event and a supported event cause manual work. There is an absence module separate from time. When there is a request for an absence, this still can come thru during the payroll processing, even when you run time. that comes through even when you lock the payroll. That affects payroll.

### "Great Usage for Employee Goal Setting "

June 30, 2022

4.0

Pros

I use Workday to personalize my worker profile such as my accomplishments, personal details, and milestones. Workday is a major tool that we use for employee goal setting, and I like how it is very intuitive to use when adding and modifying career goals. It is easy to identify our progress toward our goals, since there is a drop-down menu to select which state our goal is in.

Cons

It is difficult to add any extra notes such as your accomplishments or the specific tasks that you have done to accomplish your goal. The only way we can do this is by adding it in the comment section of the career goal. However, if you add any additional details through this method, you cannot see at a glance what you have written. You have to click on the comment icon to see your notes, which is very unintuitive.

### "App is Great!"

March 12, 2018

4.0

Pros

I love love love the WorkDay app. I use it to clock in and out everyday, as well as submit my weekly time card. It is easy and clear to use. Being able to look up my payslips by date, download and export them is especially helpful. It's also super easy to request and track your time off and sick time.

Cons

There are certain things that are only available to managers. For example, if time has already been submitted, you as an employee can not go in and adjust that time. This is especially frustrating when you just need to correct a simple mistake (you entered check in time as "PM" rather than "AM").

I use Workday daily to log my time in the office and am able to easily view my benefits and pay. It's incredibly user friendly.
