About the Team

As Workday accelerates its strategic evolution toward a consumption-based pricing model, the Platform Consumption Console (PCC) team is building the critical infrastructure to make it happen.

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work.

This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
