Descrizione
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.
