Corporate communications
With over 60 locations across the country. With everyone being busy, communicating with everyone creates challenges. People would sometimes use emails from suppliers to send messages, inadvertently linking them in on communication they shouldn’t be involved in.
Workplace has solved many of our issues keeping our communication private. We can share information freely and even target the information for individuals. So far we have barely touched what we can do with workplace but are looking forward to using it to the fullest capacity.

The worst of both worlds
Workplace seems to be a Facebook clone that's worse. Its product design and specifically its algorithms for displaying content are more aligned with how social media outside the workplace operates, rather than creating a new tool with the correct user intention baked into the design. I understand that the ability to reuse components was probably a key driver in this, but it really feels like there was no thought behind the intended user group and intentional usage changing to be work-focused. Is this a water cooler tool or an announcement tool? Who's to say, both types of posts are mixed together and displayed based on Facebook's opinionated algorithm reused from regular social media rather than letting employees, teams, leadership, etc cater their experience to their needs.
Workplace is also designed to be addictive in the way regular Facebook and Reddit are, and it's easy to waste hours reading through nested comments on a post to find the answer you're looking for, and the odds of duplicate comments increase due to this nature. The UI for threading is distracting and this product has somehow managed to make people both spend more time at work and less time working.
As a wise Freckle once said, sometimes things that are more expensive are worse, and this certainly is the case for W×M.

Great to see what’s happening within our market and hear and see everyone’s achievements❤️❤️❤️
👎🏻
Just downloaded the app, and it won’t let me log in. I’ve tried multiple times. Tried using Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Apple, but always get the 106 account synchronization error. I tried clearing the cache/cookies/browser. But the same thing keeps happening again, and again.
No one responded
Worthless

It is a great app to use for work and post on only thing I’m having trouble with right now is signing into my job when it asks for region and language
Workplace
Workplace is an amazing platform to keep in touch with colleagues and help out where you can and celebrate different events or achievements or goals even. It’s amazing how it’s only the people who are either in your organisation or the people who you work with that can see what’s happening on workplace, if there was 10 stars or more I would give this 20/10 stars but Sadly I can only give 5 stars but it is 20/10 stars worthy. Keep up the great work and I am really looking forward to anymore apps from yourselves

Find it really nice to see how all the different houses are doing and getting all the updates
Fun
I like looking and seeing what everyone is doing, we r a great big family and business don’t have any of that like we do Wc is a special company with great folks working for them. I know I’m staying till I retire. Why leave something good
Cant change settings
I only work two days a week and you can’t turn off the notifications unless you are on the clock but this app will blow up your phone with notifications about posts that I don’t care about because they are not from my store and they do not pertain to me (I work for Walmart.) Also, when I am on the clock and trying to use work chat, it is hard to hear it because you can’t turn up the volume or change the ringtone of the sound on the app. Most people have to have one earbud in their ear so they will hear when they have a message or a call. Many times I have tried to message or call someone using work chat and they don’t hear it ring or see the message until it’s too late and it doesn’t matter anymore.
