I can greatly recommend!

We are one of the banks in the UK that uses Workday Talent Management. I can say it really works well with banks with either the HR is centralised or integration with other departments such as customer service.

Pros:

-Integrated with human resources and customer service department, designed the needs together, open to team work, can be modified by different levels.-First adaptation and installation was very smooth, never seen a failure, took sensitive data from our old program and moved it during weekend without any issues.-Have also been using it to track the team, enables me to see the collaboration of the team, giving me a general view of my department, keeping me on track and letting me know about changes and alerting me on possible events in terms of the performance of my team.

Cons:

-Customer support takes serious time to respond basic queries, however sometimes surprises us and responds in a timely manner.-Small changes can be done internally, to go for big changes, you need to raise a ticket and every ticket costs a price. -Report can be exported to Excel, however the style is not very easy to customise, that makes us to change the style of each report that was exported.

Pros:

The system is visually appealing and straightforward to navigate. It seems to be the most common solution for companies.

Cons:

I kept getting locked out with no way to reset my password. It seemed like there is no user-specific interface so as I was using it across companies during recruiting/interviewing it was messing up the logins or something.

I made the switch because I changed companies.

workday review

its okey in many aspects, but for instance I work in general motors, and I am not sure why we are not using workday as a full integrated platform. for instance my vacation, absences, payroll, etc are dealt in a total different 3rd party software. So I would think that it is not me, but maybe overral my whole company that thinks it is not good for those applications. Not sure if it is too expensive to add those features.

Pros:

that it is easy to access, know and see all your pending activies. In that way you can be more easily on time on each of your tasks.

Cons:

Maybe one thing that is counter productice to workday, is how big it is. For many normal users, work day most of the time is just the application where my employer loads my tasks and I have to complete a few times a year. I know it is larger and more complex than that, but that is the main use I have given to it.

The great Workday

Pros:

Workday is great for work management. It contains a way to clock in and out. Also manage time off, sick days and any other time request. It is user friendly, but also contains a way to learn how to properly use it. Plus any positions offered with in the company can be assessed and contain all the details about the positions.

Cons:

Sometimes it will not load, and you have to wait for it to work again.

I can always get by!

My experience with Workday Talent has always been really good when I need to manage work management. However, the only improvement I can see them having is to better manage the pay tabs along with work hours and paid time off. These are not so easy to manage but the platform is great aside from that nitpick area.

Functionality

Pros:

Workday has a user friendly interface and design that helps users navigate the ATS easily. It is a great tool to track goals and keep priorities top of mind as it integrates well with Asana and Data Studio. The integrations on Workday are seamless with LinkedIn jobs, Calendly and other data driven tools.

Cons:

Sometimes managing HR solutions may become complex and would require training for some users. There are limited customizations is terms of interface and reporting features. Moving candidates to different stages of the recruitment process becomes difficult as flexibility with its interface isn't the best. The ATS is time consuming as you may not find the right information in the right place and may have to play around with the site.

Pros:

Dashboards and tracking for activity are the best for Workday as they are essential. If you are into workforce planning, this should be your choice, works really fine with large companies as well.

Cons:

It might sometimes get really slow, gets stuck and needs to refresh. It feels like each time you click somewhere, it starts using communication with server from the scratch that makes it sometimes laggy.
