Case Study: Babel achieves scalable HR and unified global people processes with Workday

Creating scalable HR to fuel ambitious growth

Babel needed a scalable HR foundation to support rapid growth, expanding from 1,500 to 15,000 employees and acquiring new companies along the way. The company also wanted to strengthen its culture by aligning people processes with its values, and turned to Workday to help unify HR, performance, and compensation operations across countries.

Workday implemented a platform that standardized HR processes, enabled continuous performance feedback, and streamlined global compensation reviews. As a result, Babel transformed annual performance reviews into real-time conversations, improved engagement, and ran merit reviews for all employees worldwide in one consistent process. Workday helped Babel achieve more agile, scalable talent operations while supporting fivefold business growth.
