Excellent human resource management is made possible by Workday's integrated platform. Insights and statistics regarding employee preferences are provided, allowing for more informed decision making.
Pros
Workday is flexible software that facilitates many different aspects of human resource management. Workday HCM has user-friendly data analytics. By collecting and analyzing this data, we may gain useful understanding and improve our approaches to workforce management.
Cons
Workday does not offer a lot of room for user input. It also has trouble merging with other programs on occasion. In addition, there are sometimes technical difficulties. I think the user interface could use some work.

Does what is required in a simple format although can be a bit boring to look at. Can be a bit repetitive and uninspiring but has so much depth and scope to do much better if it was more engaging for colleagues.
Pros
Simple and easy layout most colleagues can understand and navigate.
Cons
Very basic and uninteresting layout for most colleagues which loses engagement and can be tricky for less skilled colleagues to find how good it can be as a tool for their job.

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?

I have used Workday HCM 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 Workday HCM 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.

We tried for years to handle payroll on our own. We were lucky that we did not make any grievous mistakes during that time. Once we realized just how little we did know about payroll and tax compliance, we were terrified that we could be doing something that would jeopardize our non-profit status. We initially considered bringing on a new staff member to do nothing but payroll. When we realized just how expensive this addition would be, we opted to look for software options. Workday has checked every box we needed.
Pros
We are a non-profit organization. Our entire business model is based on supplementing the very low fees we charge our clients with donations from generous individuals and companies. These donations are contingent upon us maintaining compliance as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. There are simply too many regulations and annual changes to payroll statutes for any of our current staff to keep abreast of, and hiring a staff member with the necessary knowledge and skillset is cost-prohibitive. Workday, in essence, gives us that new staff member. For significantly less than an employee would cost, we are able to operate with full confidence that all of our needs are being met.
Cons
The initial implementation was fairly intensive. However, once we completed that phase, we have had no complaints about the time or effort involved in using Workday.
