Any suggestions that won’t require me taking a crazy pay cut? I’m pretty much open to anything.

Hello Are they any other HR licenses that are as valuable as the SHRM and HRCI ?

As an experienced, SHRM certified HRBP , I would just like some feedback on your opinion of the differences in the roles between an HRBP an HR Manager besides the obvious that the manager should have direct reports. I am an HRBP and work in step with 3 HRM’s. They all 3 just got out of cycle raises of between 5-20% 😳 and I received nothing. I am quite aware of our HR code that salary is confidential but I was told about this. Would you be looking for other employment? Or stay?

I’m a woman in my mid 20s and constantly face situations where people outside of cyber (still within the company) that I’m dealing with (older men in particular) who always push back against my cyber/technical recommendations even with managers cc’d.

In all honesty, I’ve written recommendations that male counterparts voiced in the past that had ZERO pushbacks.
