What would you do if you found out an executive was speaking poorly about you and your work performance to other employees? Is this a case where you would get HR involved? Have a conversation with the individual? Let it go? The comments are confirmed to have happened at an event that the offended party was planning/running, and the exec said negative comments to two other people at the company about the event and their work, and also said the person looked “too stressed.”

I hate my job. I'm being bullied and harassed by my bosses. I've confirmed my firm doesn't have any policies against recording (non client facing) work conversations so I just record and take notes on every call. Interviewing with other firms and companies. Anything else I should be doing, other than keeping my head down?

Partners, senior associates - why do you phrase things as “what about this? Why havent we done this?” Isnt it obviously bc nobody thought about it? Why not just direct and guide your team to do something as opposed to ask that awkward question and make the team scramble to pretend like it’s in process

Now I'm in a client location, My manager is a good person but he told me, I should report to Lead.

Lead is a psycho. He shows hell to the team members including me.
What should I do ?

Im the type to hold everything in and avoid conflict. For the first time, I confronted someone at work who treats me with disrespect. I am afraid it will create awkwardness but it's better to hold in?

What are the most comfortable shoes that I can wear while working? I stand so much and my current footwear is not cutting it

What you should do when dealing with a very toxic worker that keep on sending passive aggressive messages to you as well as in group chat and email.
Things like when you answer his question he respond: I know that
Or when he keeps on saying my change requests were just minor in group meeting but actually not.
And keep on saying how hard he works when he clearly wasn’t and already underperformed compared to an intern level.

How to not let this toxic co-worker not poison me any further?

One of my coworkers has withheld information that's important to my research because of a personal conflict we had. Should I speak to management or is it his right?

Senior that is always talking shit about staff, other seniors, and even manager behind their backs to the SM... how to tip toe around him so I don't get burned?

Any other associates just feel like glorified assistants? I work in-house in a small entertainment company with one other attorney- our GC. he treats me like an assistant. Has called me his....

The old administrator at my department won't allow me to write on what I want, even though I thought that was implicit when I joined. Can I push her to allow me to take control of my research?

What do you do if your manager hates you but you feel you are doing a good job?

What are effective ways to ensure your team feels content within the workplace? There is a rise of many people feeling undervalued and not cared for as an employee. I would like to change that. No matter the job, no one should feel less than.

I secretly witnessed a co-worker spit on another co-worker in office. I am in office 5 days a week but stayed back to complete a few tasks before the weekend when I heard some commotion walked by and saw it. Do I report or keep quiet?

How often are you connecting with old coworkers?

Ladies working in male-dominated industries, how often are you asked by customers if there is “someone else” they can talk to?

A company didn’t follow through with a scheduled intro phone call. I emailed during the time scheduled to see if something had come up & after as well to reschedule. No one answered me or followed up. I can’t help but feel like this is a little red flag. If you can’t follow though on an intro call… what’s your HR & the rest of the company doing? 😬

How do you handle not turning up any on-point research for a partner?

I put in a lot of effort to show my client properties that fit their requirements, but they ended up working with a different agent just because they wandered across an open house. I'm so frustrated right now. Has anyone else experienced this?

Anyone have a good message to send to a firm that made a great offer, but telling them you are turning it down for another opportunity?

Bay Area recruiter recs? Moving from out of state and need somebody that knows the market. Alternatively, if your firm is hiring bankruptcy associates in SF we could skip the recruiter and get you that reference commish.

Anyone know/think bill rates will see an increase at the FY? Feels like basically every other firm is doing it with how hot the market is, wondering if we will too (and obviously see the person rewards from that increase).

Would someone would be interested on giving guidance on a platform to users regarding IT field problems like how to deal with hectic hours, career growth, job switch, office politics etc.

The guide will be added in the platform and will give time slots after the job when the guide is available and only for that time slot everyday appointments will come for guiding sessions.

A session would last 40 mins and the guide will be given 250Rs. Per video call session and 150Rs per chat session

Thinking about lateraling from one large top tier international firm to another. Everyone who has left my firm is happier work wise (though they miss some of our amazing perks). I was hired as a summer in 2016, clerked in 2017 and am now going into my third year of practice.
My only complaint is that I “fit” with only about 1/ 3 of the partners on the floor which makes getting work tougher than it should be. My anxiety is at it’s peak. I am wondering if a fresh start worked for anyone?

How is the transactional corporate tax group at Akin different than M&A?

Partners - how much time do you spend thinking about your associates? Like do you ever talk to your friends or family about your associates (good or bad)? When an associate messes up do you talk to other partners about it?

Anyone work for EY’s Investigations and Compliance group? What’s it like?

Is anyone who switched firms this year still paying social security tax on their wages even though they are past the SS taxable wages threshold ($137,700 in 2020)? I just realized my SS tax “bonus” hasn’t yet kicked in this year even though it should have two paychecks ago, and I’m thinking it’s because my new firm’s payroll system doesn’t “realize” that I already paid a bunch of SS tax at my old job this year. Not sure how to fix this..do I just have to wait until I file my tax return for 2020?

Are all interviews now setup via Zoom? I feel like Zoom doesn’t really give you a feel for a candidate. Is this a new trend. What happened to in person?

Where’s the line between giving your leaders the benefit of the doubt vs this pattern is pretty dang toxic? I don’t want to leave but I’m so exhausted by the gate-keeping, the self-interest of leaders lacking any kind of employee first mentality, and the lip service of “we want to make this the best place to work.” I’m being told I’m under-utilized but when I try to bring more to the table, I’m either given empty promises or immediately dismissed. - I’m severely burnt out on trust-fails.

Hello everyone!

I'm looking for ideas on how to better the new hire's onboarding experience on the 1st and 2nd day. For eg: walk them through company mission statements, etc. Also What forms of communication do you use if you do have the orientation? Do you create PowerPoint presentations? Looking for ideas. Thanks so much!! On another note, how is your company getting the new hire to submit their paperwork like tax forms and banking information etc. Do you use a system like Workday/Dayforce?

PHR vs SHRM vs AIRS? Which one should I pursue?

Wondering if anyone has experience and/or pointers for an initial roll out or "paper-less" open enrollment using the UKG Ready platform.

Company currently uses the platform for payroll and applicant tracking, but wondering what the admin and user experience is like for managing the annual benefits open enrollment process all through UKG Ready.

Thanks!

Just for fun - how did you get in to HR?

I never knew what I wanted to be when I grew up, but in college (as a psych major) I randomly got a work study job in the HR office and enjoyed it. Graduated in 2009 when finding a job was impossible and wanted to continue in HR but ended up in payroll for a few years. Finally got an HR admin role with payroll duties, and have since worked my way up and dropped the payroll duties along the way (thankfully 😂)

Need advice. I current work as a Staffing Specialist for a large and growing franchise. The company was recently bought out and our new parent company is making a lot of changes. The culture and environment is just not the same and has prompted me to dip my toe back into job hunting. I had a phone interview yesterday that went well and I have been invited to an on-site interview. Here's my question - I've only been in HR for a year. Do you think this is a good move or should I stick it out?

Any advice on passing the SHRM exam the first time around?

I applied for a Director Learning and Development (L&D) role at McKinsey about a month ago via a referral. About a week ago, my McKinsey employee (who referred me) received an automated email saying that I had moved to the pre-screening process of the recruitment process and that I'll hear from the recruiter shortly.

It's more than a week now and I haven't heard back. Can anyone shed light on the process -- what to expect, timelines etc.

Im a contractor. Another firm has reached out for 100% remote work for basically a lateral move. I really like where I’m at right now. I’m remote but if I turn to FTE which is very possible later this year I would probably end up having to go in 1 or 2 days a week to NYC. My manager knows this is basically a dealbreaker for me. Should I let my manager know I have another firm reaching out but I really want to stay but I’d need to be a remote FTE? They mentioned several times I’m an asset.

Thoughts on SPHR vs SPHRi? I have PHR currently. Current company is growing internationally so I'm debating which route to go.

Hi Everyone, I have been an HR Generalist for close to 7 years. I had good managers and poor managers in between. My VP once told me not to pursue my MBA because she would teach me everything she knew. She never did. I am currently going for my SHRM SCP. I really enjoy being a Generalist but I don’t know if I want to be an HR Manager. Any suggestions on other areas of HR I should consider?

What job title would you use for someone who is responsible for assessing current skills gaps in the enterprise, leveraging talent marketplace and AI to identify the current skills of the workforce, and support strategic initiatives surrounding talent planning/forecasting? Something that wouldn’t include Talent Management or Workforce Planning in the title.

I have noticed that falling back on “good intentions” seems to be the answer to every bad, poorly planned, or unpopular decision from HR. Is this a common tactic?

Does anyone know if there is a NYC specific HR bowl?

Coaching leader on factors influencing KPIs.

I had a chat with my business partner, and he’s said the team is complaining about the KPIs that are too far of a stretch.

I then suggested him to unpack that a bit more. When one is not hitting their KPIs, there could be many factors.

My initial view is that it could be true but we also have to look at CAPABILITY, TECHNOLOGY, WAYS OF WORKING etc before assuming our KPI is not set up right.

What is your approach in this scenario?
