        start: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
        due: { type: Date },
        dueWarnByHours: { type: Number, integer: true },

WorkItem.update({ description: req.body.description},{period.rank: 3}, function(err, req) {
        if (err) return console.error(err);
        console.dir(reqWorkItemId + "Successfully removed the workItem from the database");

The following code will help you:-

var findQuery = { description: req.body.description, 'period.id' : someId};
WorkItem.update(findQuery,{$set:{'period.$.rank': 3}}, function(err, req) {
    if (err) return console.error(err);
    console.dir(reqWorkItemId + "Successfully removed the workItem from the database");
});

OR 

 WorkItem.update(findQuery,{$set:{'period.$.rank': 3}}, function(err, req) {
    if (err) return console.error(err);
    console.dir(reqWorkItemId + "Successfully removed the workItem from the database");
});

NOTE:- This will only update the first object of period array.

WorkItem.update({ id: d }, { description: req.body.description, $set: { 'status.0.rank': req.body.status.rank } },
        function(err, numRowsAffected, raw) {
            if (err) return console.error(err);
            if (numRowsAffected > 0) {
                console.dir("reqWorkItemId" + "Successfully removed the workItem from the database");
            } else {
                console.log("fail");
                //res.send(500, { error: 'carrier not updated' });
            }
        });

This one works for me
