UBS If I had to move within the company to a different location , how does it work? For example if I move from low cost of living area to high cost of living area does the company re-evaluate the base salary within USA? Or do they come back and mention its your family requirement since your partner is located and you are moving ?Suggestions or experiences any !

That would depend on what you value and your career goals.
What’s the difference between HRBP and an HR Generalist?
Same, no difference. HRBP is more function specific, rather assigned to a business function to manage people related matters in that function
Helping align a business' people strategy with their business strategy is obviously incredibly crucial. If you can see yourself working with senior staff, and communicating with them efficiently, I'd say definitely worth exploring.
An HRBP with expertise in benefits is an added plus..go for it if u want to have an all round career in HR

Yeah I have multi-state benefits and leave knowledge. So that’s always a plus.
What are your priorities/goals in your career?

I want to do more then benefits sometimes. Also HRBP gets paid more.

The HRBP has a little of everything and instead of just one thing. And I think I’m burnt out on benefits only.
then go for it, I can imagine that work gets stressful after awhile
It’s great to have different experiences so if you are feeling like you aren’t growing then YES - do it!

I feel like I get bored sometimes
Follow up question would be how does one transition into an hrbp role? I too am interested
HRBP roles have a lot of really ugly parts - employee relations, lay offs, coaching, investigations, difficult leaders. I’d stick in total rewards
Me too :(
It really depends on what you’re comfortable with. HRBPs deal with all ER, But on a higher level. Similar to Generalists, but thinking more strategic in the long run. My colleagues hear my ER stories and say they’ll never go the HRBP route because they don’t want to deal with stupid drama and pettiness. But I personally enjoy coaching leaders to be better leaders.
If it’s a deal breaker, I wouldn’t go that route. I would look into trying another HR specialty like TA
Sometimes, it depends on the company as well. But if you want to expand your career, then go for it.
