I just hear a quote for the CEO of Betterworks where he referred to HR as mobilizers. Do consider HR in your organization as mobilizers? How so?

We have HR business partners for each of our business areas. I feel like they are very knowledgeable.

I have no idea what he's talking about. Is that a buzzword now? Is being a mobilizer like being a rock star or a ninja? I'm just always skeptical of people who are always repurposing words and trying to create some new lexicon of gibberish. Sorry, empowered gibberish.

No. HR is about mitigating employee risk. Nothing to do with people welfare or “mobilization”.

Most of my interactions with HR is when they f’up my benefit payments or deductions or when we’re hiring and we need candidates and I end up finding candidate through my own network.

I think ‘mobilize’ is referring to HR actually helping people in the trenches get HR shit done, vs putting up more hoops to jump through.

Do you all feel that the Health Insurance choice is actually all the same? The coverage is absolutely copy and paste for Bronze to Platinum and the deductible/copay is very similar.
I just don’t understand why we have the illusion of “choice” if the offer is the same and it is really bad (in our case).
Going from $61 per paycheck for 2.5k deductible 75% copay to $500+ per paycheck with 500 deductible 85% copay.
Other firms have better health insurance?
