Greatest achievement

When a new compensation administrator took over, they realized their process wasn’t configured to meet their needs. That’s when they turned to us. We rolled out around 15 iterations of compensation reviews, gathering their feedback through calls, making adjustments, and fine-tuning the process to their satisfaction. Since it was their first time using Workday, we also provided thorough training—showing them how the process could be achieved seamlessly, including all necessary pre-checks and post-checks.
