The things HR posts on the HR bowl is genuinely cringe. The illegal and righteous things they say make you pause.

Watch out for everything HR says in these bowls, I now know why work is such a war zone.

One director didn't want to hire someone 40 years old (I don't know how they knew the age) and another HR director was enraged that employees tried to negotiate a hybrid schedule. 75% of all of my interviews have been horrible and some outright traumatic and what I have suspected was true, they do promote the most entitled to the highest levels in HR.

My wife is in sales at Mercedes and she has been averaging $200k a year and growing YoY. She loves her job, however she works long days and barely gets time off. We plan on having kids within the next year or two, and it’s highly u likely that she’ll be able to keep her current gig. We want to find a career that allows her to work remote or that at least gives her a better work life balance so that she can see her kids grow up. Should she get certifications to give her a shot at adtech?Too late?

Latinx - help! We used this term in our diversity spotlight discussing Hispanic Heritage Month. One individual said that in English a group of Latinos would just be Latins to be gender neutral.

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
