Hi All - I’m a S&O professional starting in a few weeks. What laptop do strategy professionals at Google use? I’ve used Windows exclusively as a professional but a MacBook Pro can be interesting.

Thanks! What’s the rationale here?

Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.

I have looked into getting SHRM certification. But should I go back to school and get my masters in Hr?
