Overall Satisfaction with Workday Human Capital Management

We use Workday in our entire organization, fulfilling, new hires, I-9, managing day to day employee requests including paid time off, payroll forecasting, reports that detail financials, location database management, senior level approvals and so much more. It's a day to day workflow that for the most part is simple and easy to use.
  • Manage Time Off requests.
  • Requisitions for new hires.
  • Promotions and pay increase.
  • Data Changes
  • Full Recruitment workflows
  • The requisition and candidate flow can take a bit to get used to, there are some arrows to go to the next candidate that aren't in the best place for workflow.
  • For our hourly employees that work in multi-departments where a rate change is required, there isn't a way to make that change in the inbox module. It would be great if this functionality was added for a more productive flow.
  • Time approvals.
  • Recruitment
  • Pay Change & Approvals
  • Quicker workflows.
  • Better communication of tasks.
Overall workday has been a powerful and helpful tool to manage employment tasks. For scheduling, I wish there was a more robust, customizable scheduling tool that works well with our needs. We do use an outside calendar for time off.
Modern Workday has better features, and is more user friendly than previous versions of ADP, although it's been a while since I have used ADP, ultimately I do enjoy Workday's offerings.
