Your work days are brighter here.
At Workday, it all began with a conversation over breakfast. When our founders met at a sunny California diner, they came up with an idea to revolutionize the enterprise software market. And when we began to rise, one thing that really set us apart was our culture. A culture which was driven by our value of putting our people first. And ever since, the happiness, development, and contribution of every Workmate is central to who we are. Our Workmates believe a healthy employee-centric, collaborative culture is the essential mix of ingredients for success in business. That’s why we look after our people, communities and the planet while still being profitable. Feel encouraged to shine, however that manifests: you don’t need to hide who you are. You can feel the energy and the passion, it's what makes us unique. Inspired to make a brighter work day for all and transform with us to the next stage of our growth journey? Bring your brightest version of you and have a brighter work day here.

About The Team
Would you like to be part of a company where people truly believe in what they're doing? At Workday, we're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business of enterprise applications. We work hard, and we're serious about what we do. But we like to have a good time, too. In fact, we run our company with that principle in mind every day: One of our core values is fun.
We're not just building products; we're shaping the future of work. We’re on a mission to empower organizations to build and grow their workforce with unparalleled intelligence. And at Workday, we believe that Skills are the mechanism for businesses to understand their people and for individuals to grow. We work to ensure people have access to opportunities based on their background and experiences, capabilities, and potential, with skills as the key to equitable opportunities for all. We are building an AI-powered platform to accelerate businesses on their skills-based organization journeys. Skills power recommendations, matching, and analytics across Workday product areas, including Recruiting, Learning, and Career Mobility. Our goal is to help large organizations break down silos and build more agile work environments and enable the continuous growth of hardworking people everywhere.
We are a hardworking team not afraid to roll up our proverbial (or actual) sleeves, but we also don’t take ourselves too seriously. We love hiking (crying) up the Grouse Grind, enjoying diverse food experiences, and exploring interesting team building activities. Our most recent adventure was going mushroom foraging! If you want to build products that will transform the world of work, impact the lives of millions and have lots of fun along the way, we want you!

Our Approach to Flexible Work
With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
Workday is an Equal Opportunity Employer including individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
