Jaded HR: Your Relief From the Common Human Resources Podcasts

Send us a text

Ever found yourself caught between holiday parties and year-end reports, trying to balance the chaos of personal life with professional duties? That’s where we kick off this episode of Jaded HR! We’re celebrating our podcast achievements, reminiscing on memorable episodes, and sharing personal stories like my new “cool HR” title earned during a night out in Philadelphia. Plus, dive into some family fun with tales of brewing beer with my son, who’s back home for winter break. Join us as we embrace the festive frenzy while planning for an exciting 2025 filled with fresh content and even more candid conversations.
In the realm of performance reviews, we’re shaking things up by ditching traditional numerical ratings in favor of real-time, narrative feedback. Our engineering company is all about fostering open communication and transparency, which has helped create a drama-free environment. We’ll share insights and potential improvements to this system, like revisions to feedback, as our team grows. It’s all about keeping things fair and straightforward while encouraging fruitful dialogues between managers and employees, ensuring everyone’s on the same page.
Switching gears to a hot topic in HR, we’re unraveling the recent salary rollercoaster at Ohio State University. After a Texas judge halted a planned salary threshold increase, Ohio State reversed pay raises, leaving many employees financially strained and sparking potential legal battles. We’ll compare how our company approached these regulatory uncertainties with caution, sharing strategies to navigate such changes while maintaining employee morale. To sprinkle some humor on this serious topic, I’ll recount a funny personal anecdote about using new slang, reminding us all of the generational learning curve we frequently encounter.
