Shake things up!

Hey there Grapevine Community,

I've noticed a lot of chatter here about SDEs and PMs, so I thought I'd mix things up a bit.

I'm an HR Executive (aka Chief Happiness Officer 😁) at an early-stage startup, and I'm curious to hear from all of you.

What do you think are some innovative or unconventional strategies you've seen or experienced in HR that have really made a difference in your workplace?

Looking forward to your stories and ideas!

Cheers!

That anonymous surveys are not really anonymous, isn’t it ?

HRs are unfairly blamed because of what they're told top down. I feel HR heads should have much more power, and they'll genuinely make a difference.

Just take feedback from employees on a regular basis, and try to do what is fair. More power to you.

Unconventional strategy will be to provide timely and proper raise & promotion to existing employees rather than keep hiring from outside or trying to offer them raise/promotion as retention

Not having a HR in the company and getting those jobs of HR by one of the colleagues with other work of program and responsibilities rotate quarterly.
