I'm not familiar with workday and new to coding. Is this beneficial compared to scraping company pages because workday will have consistent structure across companies?

Workday (if used, there are many other HRIS systems out there) is traditionally the source of truth as an HRIS (HR information system), is built into the org’s recruiting workflow, and the data has consistent structure. You don’t know where the data is coming from when directly on the company website, who is updating it and on what cadence (if any), etc.
