I am particularly interested in exploring Workday HCM's performance management side, advanced compensation, benefits, and talent modules because they are far more advanced compared to my company’s current system. I am excited to learn more about how AI is integrated with Workday HCM. Additionally, it's appealing to have job descriptions and related files all in one location, as well as bundled processes like recruitment and employee changes and salary increases instead of using individual systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM?

What I like most about Workday HCM is how it centralizes HR processes in one user-friendly platform. Tasks like managing employee data, completing performance reviews, submitting time-off requests, and running reports feel streamlined and are easy to navigate.

Everything lives in one system. Recruiting is connected to core HR, so when a candidate becomes a hire, the data moves over without re-entering anything.

For a company that needs structure and audit trails, it delivers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? The interface is my biggest issue. I used Workday Recruiting daily for about two years as a recruiter, and even simple actions take too many clicks and too many screen loads. Moving a candidate between stages, leaving feedback, or checking pipeline status all require waiting for pages to render and clicking through multiple screens that could easily be combined into one. Overall, the system feels designed for HR administrators who only jump in occasionally, not for recruiters who live in it eight hours a day.
