Workday layoff history

PinkSlip has recorded 3 confirmed layoff events at Workday, running from January 2023 to February 2026. Together they account for roughly 2,675 disclosed roles, or about 13.4% of an estimated 20,000-person workforce. Scoring uses that share rather than the raw number, because the same headcount means very different things at a 10,000-person company and a 200,000-person one. Source: layoffs.fyi. Recent events weigh more than older ones — each decays on a half-life instead of dropping out on a fixed date — so the most recent filing on February 4, 2026 carries the most weight in today's score.

How Workday compares to other tech employers

Workday (WDAY) is an Enterprise SaaS company tracked as part of the NASDAQ-100 and currently scores 39 out of 100, where 0 is the safest reading and 100 the riskiest. That is riskier than 75% of the 68 tech employers PinkSlip tracks. Over the past week the score climbed 10 points, and over the past month it climbed 6 points.

What is driving the Workday score

Workday's score is driven mainly by the public record — confirmed layoff filings and the financial and news signals around them. No crowd reports have come in over the past 30 days, so nothing is currently corroborating or contradicting that record from the inside. Absence of reports is deliberately not treated as evidence of safety — a quiet company and an unobserved one look identical in public data, so the model never discounts risk for silence alone. At this level the signals do not suggest imminent action, though the score is recomputed every morning and a single filing or earnings miss can move it quickly.

Workday layoff risk — frequently asked questions

Has Workday had layoffs recently?

PinkSlip has tracked 3 layoff events at Workday in the past year, the latest on February 4, 2026, totalling roughly 2,675 disclosed roles. Undisclosed headcounts are excluded from that total, so treat it as a floor rather than a full count.

How is the Workday layoff risk score calculated?

PinkSlip blends 10+ public data sources — historical layoff events, quarterly earnings, hiring and news signals, and anonymous crowd reports — into a single 0–100 layoff risk score. Signals are weighted by how predictive they have been historically, and each one decays on a half-life as it ages rather than expiring on a fixed date — so a layoff announced last month weighs roughly twice as much as the same layoff two months earlier, and fades out gradually instead of disappearing overnight.

How often does the Workday risk score update?

Every day. An automated job re-scrapes the public sources each morning and recomputes every tracked company's score, so the 7-day movement shown above always compares against freshly ingested data. Quarterly earnings refresh on each company's own reporting schedule.

Where does PinkSlip's Workday layoff data come from?

The layoff events listed above are sourced from layoffs.fyi. Across all companies PinkSlip aggregates state WARN notices, layoffs.fyi, quarterly earnings filings, and layoff coverage from major business and tech outlets. Everything is public data — no employer submissions, and no paywalled sources.
