A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Now on top of my workload, which is already insane, I'm expected to set and meet personal goals by some arbitrary deadline? This shit is so condescending. I'm an adult, being paid to exchange my time and work for a salary. I don't need to be treated like a child and made to complete these homework assignments to prove my growth within the company. Anyone else dealing with this shit right now?

Yeah, HR does a lot of weird shit. If you have a good boss, they will tell you what to write if you ask. Everyone thinks it’s bullshit except for the HR boss.

Ditto. Mine sat with me and worked through what would sound good to HR. Waste of both our time.

Classic bullshit job. The business has to have HR, but there's not really enough for them to do so they just make up bullshit that no one wants to do.
