Hi, we are currently updating our Apprenticeship Policy and I wanted to understand what other organisations offer in regards to:
1. Rewards for exam passes
2. Holiday allowance during study

Any detail would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How does the pre-tax parking benefit work at kpmg? There isn't much detail on ssc or benefits connection but it seems like it is on the honor system vs a separate account like FSA?

I wonder, why everyone is not applying for FAANG and they’re happy with startups or other companies? (Not talking about who are not able to clear the interviews )

Anyone work for Kraken? If so what are some pros/cons about the company? I work financial crime investigations, and had a recruiter reach out about a law enforcement production job. Opinions on salary, PTO, and other benefits would be helpful!

In 2023 I'm wanting to help make my management more effective. So, I'm looking for a book or a couple of books to gift my team this holiday season. I would like books that focus on communication and taking ownership. Any recommendations?

New to Seattle.
Does anyone know any good locations to host a holiday party for 20-25 people? All adults mostly.

Has anyone just taken a break from work without anything lined up? Every offer I’ve gotten wants me to start in a month and with 2 weeks notice that leaves me only 2 weeks to recharge. For my mental health I really think I need an extended break (like 3 months). I have about 60k liquid to sustain myself and pay about $1500 a month in rent.

Can someone please help me with the holiday Calendar for HSBC Bangalore ?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Europe!
What is reasonable salary growth coefficient when going from FTE to consultant?
My current reasoning is 2x as
* We get 100% parental leave for 6 months in current company
* Risk mitigation

I have never been a consultant before, what other factors should one consider?

Does Oracle have holiday shutdown?

Hey

Do we get marriage leave Atleast one week leave during notice period

Any hr present here who can answer?

I want to kn tcs policy before I argue with my manager for wedding leaves

Any A&M folks here? Wondering how benefits / 401k compare to Big 4

About to take an offer at EY. Want a baby soon and saw the great news about increased parental leave. Question is, can u use vacation time consecutively with it? Right now most on leave take 5 months

2 weeks unassigned in may. Can I use PTO for those 2 weeks even if I haven’t accrued it yet? 1st year, and what are the cons of two weeks off? Like utilization. Etc

Do you drink or do anything wild at company holiday parties or events? I feel like as one of the only minority associates I have to be extra careful to stay professional. All my white coworkers can talk about is the open bar and how crazy everyone gets...true or false for your company?

Since we returned to office in October, is it appropriate to give holiday gifts to team members?

I accepted a new job, they said PTO was “generous.” I find out it’s 19 days a year of PTO (which includes sick days). I have two young children and we like to vacation 1-2x a year (no more than a few days away each time). Am I crazy that this is pretty limited time off? 8 of the normal holidays off during the year (working the week between Christmas and NYE). Thoughts? I dont know if lack of PTO is a good reason to back out, is it?

Has anyone partnered with SOFA, society of financial awareness a non profit. Gets advisors in the door at companies for purely education.?

Run Joe Run!! Run Joe Run :)

Plz help me out if I shoukd join ey and work for Dell client or join Harman .

If you had to guess when oncycle will be, what would you say? I’ve heard funds were disappointed by participation rates and quality last time, so I’m curious to see if they can show enough discipline to wait this year.

Hello everyone! This is my first time posting since joining this platform. I’m interested in connecting with someone who is open to HR mentoring. I’ve been in HR now for about six years and have never had a mentor. I’ve been relying mostly on SHRM and other people in the company for feedback. Even if it’s for feedback, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

Has anyone completed Cornell’s EMHRM program? If so, any advice for the official interview that happens after the application is submitted?

I am going to move in the next few month to a location with a higher cost of living due to personal circumstances. I love my current company but I’ve only been here a little over a month, how should I go about requesting if it’s possible to get a salary increase? Might be a stretch but thought it might be worth mentioning.

I’m planning to buy the study materials for the SHRM-CP certificate through Amazon. What are the best ones to obtain?

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything. I was looking at both SHRM-CP and SPHR. Everyone that I have spoken to has the SHRM, but that’s also only looking at individuals in a small geographic footprint and within 3-4 different companies. I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

I have two questions. I have 10 years of experience in multiple sectors and I have been trying to gain a leadership position. I am attempting my PHR this summer but what are some tips in order for me to obtain a leadership position? Also, how long does it take to obtain another position out of state? I am trying to move to Houston but I don’t want to move until I am confident I can obtain a position in the city before packing up and leaving.

Advice on taking the SHRM-SCP exam? I’m taking the exam tomorrow and not feeling as prepared as I should. Who has taken the SCP exam? How difficult did you find it?

I’m having the hardest time finding a new job. I have 12 years of HR experience, a masters in HR, SHRM certification, and all I keep getting are rejection emails. I’ve never experienced this difficult of a time searching for new opportunities. Is this normal once you hit a certain level in your career or is it just me?
