### "Workday Review 2025"

February 1, 2025

4.0

Overall my experience has been positive. As previously mentioned it has a user-friendly interface, strong automation, and seamless integrations. It combines HR, payroll, talent management, and benefits administration in one platform, reducing the need for multiple systems.

Pros

What I like the most about is its user-friendly interface, strong automation, and seamless integrations. Not to mention the UI is easy to navigate making it a better time for employees and employers.

Cons

What I like least about is that setting it up can be time consuming and resource intensive. Also while Workday offers flexibility, certain customizations require technical expertise which isn't very user friendly of Workday.

### "Seamless experience for the employee"

November 27, 2024

5.0

It seems like a tool that allows a lot of integrations which allows for efficiencies and gives the feeling of just one comprehensive tool for everything HR. And one can use it on the go through the app

Pros

I have only recently started using Workday, but it seems like a good tool that allows many integrations and therefore the feeling for the end user is that it is a comprehensive tool. Beyond the standard HR information one might need (salary, time off, etc.), my skills profile (from the recruitment stage) is integrated with the skill-building systems (courses, etc.) and the mentoring platform of the company. Another couple of feature I found useful (especially as a new starter) were the admin assistance chat, also integrated within the platform and the org chart. Logging in is made easy and they offer an app.

Cons

Nothing major negative to report at this stage.

### "Very useful, some (mild) learning curve"

April 14, 2025

4.0

Overall very positive. Logging hours, finding documents, applying for time off all was very easy to do although navigating the website took some time to adjust to.

Pros

Workday has a lot of features for helping employees, whether new, veterans or alumni of the company, find the important resources they need. Even at a company where I had already left, Workday was very easy to navigate information that was helpful for filing taxes and finding a new job.

Cons

Initially it was a bit less intuitive to navigate, however this was remedied with HR office hours and navigating the product more.

### "Good product."

November 26, 2024

5.0

Overall it's good. I like that there's an app as well, so it is easier to access if needed.

Pros

It is easy to use, especially the clock-in and clock-out feature. You can find all the tax documents for previous years, which I think is great.

Cons

Some features are not as easy to find. Took me a minute to find where to update direct deposit information.

### "Workday is the OG"

October 28, 2024

5.0

I have used with a couple different employers and it is by far superior to other comparable software. Everything is located on your dashboard. There is no multiple logins for different apps/software because it's all here. It gives easy access to view and/or change pay/benefit information, all employee personal information, taxes and time entering. What's not to love?

Pros

One of the things I like most about is the customizable drop down menu on your dashboard to make it easy to access things YOU need. Also, the time entering and access to benefit information is also great.

Cons

I don't have anything I don't like about it.

### "Helpful product"

March 17, 2025

5.0

It gets the job done for sure. I would recommend it for any business looking to upgrade their system with the results based program.

Pros

Allows us to be able to track staffing and our employees have the ability to login either on a computer or the app.

Cons

It can be cumbersome at times at the number of steps in order to clock in. There’s also challenges, correcting an inaccurate punch for the employees.

### "Workday Program Review - CSR Role"

October 1, 2024

5.0

I used Workday on a weekly basis while at a Senior Customer Service Respresentative role. The interface was intuitive and it had notifications to elt me know when there was a completed lesson for the learning section. Never had any major issues signing up for or attending these lessons.

Pros

Great learning classes for understanding day to day operations or specific lessons. It was super easy to learn with videos and powerpoints to handle a Senior CSR role.

Cons

Nothing in particular stands out as an awful elemtn. Perhaps it could categoriuze more useful portions together like the lessons and less common sections like the birthdays in another area?

Pros

They have the most comprehensive set of features for HCM needs. Their features are rich and very customizable. HCM product integrates natively with our other workday components seamlessly and pretty much out of the box.

Cons

The cost has steadily risen over the years to a point where it's too much.

March 31, 2025

Workday expenses is ok and once you use it several times its gets slightly easier, however when you do not complete items it comes up with a red error note ( does not advise what the error is ) which is quite frustrating

Pros

I like you can copy expense reports , this is probably the only thing I like

Cons

There are so many confusing components , adding tax etc , uploading receipts several times , I find it quite hard to complete a expense report .
