Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work, we are merging the best of both worlds: in-person engagement and remote work. Our approach allows our teams to strengthen connections, foster a strong community, and perform at their best. We recognize that flexibility can take many forms, so rather than specifying a required number of in-office days 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 will have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that accommodates your business, team, and personal needs while being intentional about maximizing time spent together. Those in our remote 'home office' roles also have the opportunity to gather in our offices for significant 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.
