Honestly, it's kinda wild how many huge companies just throw all their really important finance and HR info into workday. I've read that companies love it because everything's organized and you can access your stuff from anywhere, but the idea of putting all your eggs in one basket freaks me out.
Like imagine if workday got hacked or just glitched out for a day—entire paychecks, hours, even who's supposed to be working where could get messed up. My dad's company uses workday, and one time their pay got delayed because the system was down. Everyone was panicking!
Sure, workday does a lot of security checks and probably has backup plans, but nothing's perfect. It makes sense for companies to want all their stuff in one spot, but if workday crashes, the whole business could be stuck. I guess you just have to trust they're spending a ton on keeping it safe, but I'd feel better if there was an easy backup method. Stuff online always sounds safer than it really is until something goes wrong. Might be smart for businesses to have a Plan B, you know?
