I currently work for a company that has requirements for who can join the events club, and members must vote on whether or not to include you. For me, having requirements to join this events group are unusual or very non-inclusive. Everyone should be welcome to participate. This club plans company events and supports community initiatives, both of which I am interested in. They have not yet specified the requirements, but club members will vote on whether you can join. submitted by /u/panpandesu [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey all! So I’ve been in recruitment for almost 10 years and our HR senior leader let me know that HR is expanding within the company and pretty much said I can go HRIS (would focus on TA) or Compensation route. My instant thought was which is area could help me be more marketable in the future. Thoughts? I even thought about asking to create a hybrid role that touches both HRIS and Comp - if that’s possible? Thanks! submitted by /u/wolborg93 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi All, Long story short, I was laid off from my “one person HR department” role in a startup 2 weeks ago. I have an overall of 7 years of work experience in HR and have worked as an HR Admin, then Generalist, then HRBP, and then switched to the startup to set up HR function from scratch. The startup unfortunately went under (not completely, but they laid off 60+%). So I have to soon start job searching. My “issue” is the following: I have got my last job via a professional connection, so did not have to play the “apply online with 1000 others” game. Therefore, I had my last interview without ..read more

I sometimes find myself at odds with managers because of HR's mission and responsibilities. If a new employee's onboarding takes longer than a manager would like, for example, or HR won't sign off on a baseless termination, we are resented. Even the director at the hospital where I work expresses exasperation over my team's requirements that policies be followed. I'm tired of going home most nights feeling isolated, unsupported, or at times under attack. I would love any thoughts or suggestions for improving this situation. submitted by /u/GortLovesYou [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
