Pros

“Its greatest strengths are its high system stability with minimal bugs and a seamless Scheduling and Time Clock feature that simplifies daily operations for employees. While it is a premium investment, the Value for Money is clear through the elimination of disconnected third-party tools and the high level of professional Customer Support provided.”

RAUL M.

software support

“The platform integrates multiple HR functions into one system, making it easier to access employee records, process requests, and manage workforce operations efficiently.”

Swaminathan S.

ERC Sr Associate

“Also, Workday HCM provides a flexible system that can support RRS Group as the organization grows and its workforce needs become more complex.”

Fernando G.

Talent Acquisition

Pros

“It accurately stores all of my documents since I have first been at the business and I am able to easily track my days off and holiday which enables me to plan effectively”

Daniel H.

Group FPA Manager

“There are so many helpful processed and features, such as onboarding checklists, sending reminders in document tracking, performance review forms and many more. Once you get used to the system our processes are better streamlined.”

Yuki Y.

HR Advisor

“we also like the fact that we have used the system to automate a lot of manual processes such as our appraisal, exit interviews, probationary reviews etc.”

Jayne B.

HR Director

Cons

“The main drawbacks of Workday HCM are its steep learning curve and the complexity of its back end configuration, which often requires specialized training or expensive consultants.”

RAUL M.

software support

“Reporting, not clear on trended worker data source and not easy to combine data and data sources and not easy to make dashboards for higher management, often we need to go to powerbi solution which means exporting sensitive data.”

Sofia P.

HR IT

“the interface is a little clunky at times, and some pages can bog down when you're loading long lists.”

Samuel P.

Operations Content Lead

Cons

“This is somewhat of a dubious "Con", but from my own experience there can be so many different fields and sub-headings that the amount of information stored can be difficult to navigate quickly - as an example, finding annual leave remaining is behind multiple menus and there is an abundance of data/info which can be "noisy" when looking for something specific.”

Lewis M.

Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist

“Also i feel sometimes things are over complicated, and there's niche aspects that need to be remembered to successfully manage the HRIS”

Emmie S.

People Coordinator

“Sometimes difficult to find this due to no text on sidebar icons.”

Alex H.

Marketing Manager
