The features of Workday HCM are easy to understand.

Cons

I do not have reasons to dislike Workday HCM.
Workday HCM is superb.

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.

Pros

Ease of use - the app on my phone is great!

Cons

Delegating tasks can be tricky - it isn't as intuitive as some of the other functions and features.

Pros

We use Workday HCM at the moment, and it is very powerful, linking talent management, holidays, payroll and benefits. We recently merged systems with another company's systems, and this was tricky but worked well in the end.

Cons

I dislike the fact that Workday will time out annoyingly quickly if you are writing something like a staff review, losing your work irrevocably. I believe this may be a setting changeable by our IS team, but the cloud-based nature of Workday means that it can be fragile to bad connections etc. We have also not yet been able to integrate it into our ADP system for parts of the business, so some managers can't approve leave if their employee works in a different location.

Pros

I use it to onboard all trainees and for ATS, B.A.C.L.M.S as well as pre-made/built blocks for time tracking.

Cons

We are satisfied and OK with all has, Workday HCM worths it.

Pros

The design is clean, and easy to use, making it easy to find what I need. I like the fact that I can perform tasks on my desktop or phone, this come in very handy when traveling. Features like tracking time off, viewing my pay stub, and managing my team are all in one spot saving me time.

Cons

Sometimes the system is slow. Finding certain reports and understanding them can be cumbersome for me, because I'm not familiar with HR tools as a manager of people.

So far Workday HCM has all features we need. No issues.

Cons

I am not sure it is okay to see the salary of people working under you but workday allows this.

Pros

it's exceptionally well built for user configuration with it's highly flexible drag and drop customisation "out of the box"

Cons

it can be very "click heavy" to complete a workflow and having two browser windowns open with workday at the same time can cause glitching.

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

The major pillar is optimizing financial resources and plan for the future effectively. The support offered is unmatched giving personalized solutions for the entire business. Also, no surprises in pricing, it is quite transparent. It is a user friendly system which has made payroll processing easier.

Editing should be improved. It is difficult to go back to already saved data and edit them.
