What’s one HR process you think companies overcomplicate? My opinion? Performance reviews! Simpler conversations often lead to better outcomes.

Well, the first thing you need is managers who *ever* give feedback to their staff, and know how to give effective feedback. HR didn't complicate performance reviews, managers did, because they're too chickens**t to give corrective feedback and too incapable of giving effective, actionable positive feedback beyond "hey, you're doing great!"

I'm not trying to complicate things, I'm trying to get managers to do their jobs. There's a verb in the word "manager," and too few of them have any clue.

Fair enough!!

I agree with performance reviews. I think we over engineer them to the point they lose meaning. I have had better outcomes from honest conversations than long forms and ratings.

Exactly!

Hi community, humbly seeking professional HR advice. I recently joined my company’s HR team. In an informal conversation, a senior HRBP, considered a peer, called 2 of our fellow HR colleagues “worthless.” I should have rebuked her then & there but was so caught off guard. This person is 20 years my senior. In the same conversation this person advocated for me on a separate matter & complimented my performance. I am not sure what course of action to take at this time. Distraught & unsure.

I am now actively looking but how do I explain to other employers why I am actively looking and what do I put on my resume? I have never had to deal with this before.
