August 11, 2024

5.0

A cool thing about Workday HCM is that you can sign up for free and play around with the tool, not being charged until you pay first team member.

Pros

Dedicated local Workday HCM experts ensures comprehensive and tailored assistance. It also integrates seamlessly with popular software tools platforms making work easier and enjoyable. Automated invoicing streamlines financial tasks, saving time and energy on such tasks. It is also a perfect solution for remote and global teams.

We find Workday HCM to be user-friendly and intuitive to navigate on the employee and manager side alike. However, additional charges apply for specific advanced features such as onboarding automation.

March 18, 2025

4.0

It’s ok but not great for small businesses to use only large scale companies

Easy to use interface, customizable, accessible on cellphone, integration with other apps

Cons

Cost, learning curve, complexity in setting it up initially, limited third party apps, lack of transparency pricing, limited ATS

### "Easy to navigate"

November 21, 2024

5.0

In my role I use it for multiple things such as pay slips, performance evaluations and mandatory/elective trainings for my job. It's nice having all these things on one application. I use it all the time to look stuff up when needed.

Pros

I love that it has so many applications on one platform such as pay slips, time off, directory, performance evaluations, expenses. It essentially holds all the documentation/paperwork you need for your position.

Cons

Not always sure where to find things when I need it, but you can always type into the search box and try to find articles pertaining to what you might be looking for.

Pros

March 25, 2025

3.0

Pros

When I was working at target, it made things more accessible and does the job for what you’re looking for

Cons

I wish they offered more updates. It’s overall great but I think if they have better customer service and listen to the customers and they’re viewpoints, this will continue to excel

I like the functionality of this software. If you look after the design (this was back in 2021) it is easy to look for what you need. Whether it be

Pros

I liked it how I could check my pay and how much hours I'm making, checking time-off and holidays, and benefits with the job. It also helps me sign in and sign out from a particular shift and shows me my schedule of where I'm going.

Cons

I did not like the design all that much. It was hard to find what I was looking for, including time off, looking for the benefits. I wish people understand its not just a place for careers.

November 10, 2024

4.0

Overall, using workday HCM has been amazing. With minor improvements can help alot.

Pros

It is a one stop platform, it helps to easily view and download payslips, check comments from supervisors, easy to use.

Cons

The password protection is good, however asking for otp for every step kind of gets a bit annoying. Other than that great to use.

### "Good but could use some improvements"

November 21, 2024

4.0

Mid to average overall experience. I had to use this product a lot for my job, but I feel like its under used by management.

Pros

Feature packed. A lot of useful features can be found such looking for information on payments, benefits, tasks, timetables and submitted documents.

Cons

Buggy interface, not easy to navigate, and inconvenient functionalities. Tasks sometimes are not easy to review. Although packing a lot of features, sometimes its under utilized by management. Server issues sometimes happen.

December 19, 2024

Overall it is excellent. Takes a bit of learning but after that it is seamless to use.

Pros

Its an easy tool for payroll management. It is very easy to view all the information regarding compensation, pay ranges and bands in a single page.

Cons

It has a lot of capabilities and navigations and sometimes getting the simplest information becomes tricky as you might be lost in clicks and pages

### "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.

### "#TEAMWORKDAY"

December 4, 2024

Overall, I like it because again I'm able to track my time and make sure there is no errors

Pros

I like workday because I can check my hours daily or if I need to change something for my taxes or what have you it at my fingertips.

Cons

I don't like that my manger has to approve my hours before it gets to human resources because what if my manger doesn't show up for work the day it needs to be submitted ?

### "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
