CK Claire K. Sr. Talent Management Specialist Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 4/21/2026 "Streamlined Employee Onboarding, Great But Needs Better Guidance" 5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? I appreciate that Workday HCM makes it super easy for a candidate once they apply, as all their information automatically goes into the system without them needing to take another step. They can accept or decline a job offer right there in the system, ensuring everything is well-documented. It offers really standardized experiences for candidates and makes onboarding simple, without relying on HR business partners for paperwork. I also like using it for talent management, as it's nice to have people's work history in one place, allowing managers to provide input and create personalized experiences. This leads to enhanced experiences across all levels. I'm really happy with Workday HCM and would give it a 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? It's frustrating to have our setup configured in a way that doesn't make sense due to decisions made when initially implementing the system. When I try to get more information, I'm overwhelmed with the vast options available in Workday HCM but without guidance on best practices or effective usage from Workday. Being unable to join the Workday community board without approval makes it tough, especially since I have to rely on external sites like Reddit for information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? Workday HCM simplifies employee onboarding, automating candidate information entry.

Director, ERP Sustainment & Delivery Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 8/11/2025 "Workday HCM" 5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? Workday HCM offers a centralized platform that streamlines core HR processes such recruitment, compensation management, full employee life-cycle and access to employee data in real time. Workday offers a user friendly interface for end-users and a fairly intuitive approach to perform HR transactions both via self-service and via HR Shared Services teams. One of the key features that our employees like is the self-service capability. Platform early adopters were fascinated that they could see their profile updates (i.e. payment elections, tax elections, personal info, etc.) updated in real time, rather than sending an email to a generic mailbox and waiting for a long time for the changes to be reflected. Additionally, Workday offers fantastic reporting and dashboard capabilities. which allow for data-driven decisions & recommendations. Finally, Workday integrates well with other systems (either via core connectors or custom integration solution developed in Workday Studio) and that makes Workday to be the hub and source of truth for employee data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? Workday is an expensive platform, so it may not be a good fit for smaller companies. Also, significant change management is required to capitalize on the benefits of Workday HCM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? Prior to Workday, our company did not have a centralized HR system. Employee data was stored in multiple systems. Centralizing employee data and having access to it, as well as the ability to report on it, is the main problem that Workday helped us solve for. Access to data allows our senior leadership to make data driven decisions. It also allows our HR Team to spend more time on strategic issues, rather than chasing accurate employee data.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? It can be a little clunky, and by that I mean it's not as customizable as we would like it to be.

I like that Workday HCM houses everything in one place, making it easier to manage various HR-related tasks. I also appreciate the integrations with other tools, such as Gem for CRM and Slack, which make using different vendor tools seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? I don't like the UX design and data analysis in Workday HCM. Pulling data is tedious, and the design could be friendlier and more modern, especially in terms of colors and buttons. I'd like to see easier AI integrated options for pulling data. Also, finding time slots when scheduling with hiring managers, especially for multiple steps and panel interviews, could be easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Workday HCM is intuitive with no learning curve for employees, providing a great employee experience. It's highly configurable, ideal for companies in high tech and financial industries. It also helps manage global employees in different countries and locations for benefits and compensation effectively. Additionally, I appreciate that it integrates seamlessly with our background check and payroll vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? The compensation module can be improved for managerial experience especially with a large span of control. With Excel, managers can see 200 employees on one screen, but with Workday, you need to drill down and go to multiple pages to have a complete view. Also, Workday HCM is not best suited for companies with frontline workers and heavy in payroll processing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is really easy to follow. The company use it for many things, but the most important are the following: I can see my personal information and since when I'm in the company, I can see my metrics and it helps to achieve the goals that we set up as a team. It is really important to mention I can apply to the different opportunities that the company has available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM?

Manager, HR Technology Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 1/30/2026 "Unified Enterprise Grade Solution" 5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? Workday HCM is a powerful unified solution that allows us to easily manage our people cycles and operational tasks while providing a familiar and user-friendly environment for our workers. It has a comprehensive suite of solutions that covers many areas of HCM management, reducing the need for integrations. Because it is a unified solution with so many functional areas and data related to these, reporting and analytics across HR becomes very simple and powerful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? Implementations of the system can be challenging for organizations to handle and typically are difficult projects, resulting in work that flows over to Production thereafter. Also related to this, staffing a Workday team can be challenging and can be difficult to build. It can be tough to find good talent internally or externally to help support the system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? It provides a central platform for our workers and our HR administrators creating a consumer grade experience. Our team members are very familiar with it, and managers are used to completing operational and people cycle related tasks in the environment and feel comfortable after doing it for many years. Again, because it is a unified solution, it has reduced the need for strictly technical administrators and many business-users with HR background can work through integrations where they are needed using Workdays capabilities as an iPaaS, but for the most part, integrations is not a major concern of ours because it is a unified solution with many great products Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the SSO functionality in Workday HCM, which works really well. It makes it easy to log in to all of the different software that I use for my day job and is easy to manage. Unlike our old system, it doesn't require 2FA every single time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? One of the worst UX's of any product I have ever used. Impossible to find anything and the visual hierarchy is terrible. Any time you need to find anything or do a task it's always buried and really hard to understand if you have successfully completed a task. The flat black and white only UX is so terrible.

Intershala Student Partner (ISP) Computer Software Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 1/25/2026 "Streamlined OKRs and Performance Tracking with a Handy Org Chart" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? The performance management and goal-tracking features are very streamlined. Setting OKRs and tracking progress within the tool is much smoother compared to the spreadsheets we used previously. I also like the 'Org Chart' visualization feature; it makes it very easy to find who reports to whom across different technical teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? The web interface can sometimes be sluggish and heavy to load, especially during peak usage times like payroll cutoffs or performance review cycles. The 'loading' spinner appears frequently when switching between modules. For a cloud-based platform, the responsiveness could be much snappier compared to other modern SaaS tools we use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? It solves the issue of fragmented systems. We used to have separate logins for payroll, performance reviews, and attendance. Workday consolidates all of this into a single platform.

Workday HCM stands out for its unified platform and intuitive, easy-to-use user experience. Being able to manage core HR, payroll, talent, and reporting within a single system helps reduce siloed operations and keeps everything in one place. The real-time reporting and dashboards are especially valuable, enabling quicker decision-making. In addition, its cloud-based nature ensures regular updates without heavy maintenance overhead for day-to-day use, and it’s also easy to integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? While Workday HCM is powerful, certain configurations—especially advanced reporting and business process frameworks—can be complex and may require experienced resources. The user interface is generally intuitive, but it can feel less flexible when supporting highly customized workflows, particularly if the setup isn’t done properly. Also, integrating with legacy or non-Workday systems can sometimes take additional effort, and it can be complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? Workday HCM has streamlined our HR operations by bringing multiple systems together into a single platform. This consolidation has improved data accuracy, reduced manual effort, and strengthened our reporting capabilities. As a result, our HR teams can spend more time on strategic initiatives instead of day-to-day administrative tasks. Workflow automation has also increased overall process efficiency while supporting compliance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
