Trust, Honest, Fun are All Attributes of Our Culture

Since being founded by Dave Duffield and Aneel Bhusri in 2005, Workday has grown significantly. Now with more than 130 customers and 400 employees, Workday is not just a great place to work, it′s the “Best Place to Work in the Bay Area.” That′s right—for two years running, Workday has been #1 on the independent, third-party list compiled by the San Francisco Business Times.

What is it about Workday that makes it such a great place to work? Although our company culture is not something you can easily define, we think it′s a combination of what we believe as much as what we don’t believe.

We believe in:

  • A small-company feel, regardless of our size.
  • An open and honest approach to all facets of business.
  • A trust in each other.
  • The opportunity for everyone to contribute, make decisions, and make a difference.
  • A fun day at work.
  • Embracing and driving change.
  • Being humble.

A few things we don’t believe in:

  • Bureaucracy
  • Top-down decision making
  • Corporate politics
  • Unnecessary organizational structure and hierarchy
  • “Kissing up” and “slapping down”
  • Boredom
  • Cutthroat, shark-like business dealings
