Typical response My wife is a VP of HR but has a lot of ops experience and M&A experience so she carries her weight. Within the 1st year she saved her company more than her salary, bonus and sign on bonus by changing a few things.
The exception that proves the rule, since the previous were so fricking incompetent that she was able to save a bunch of money by “changing a few things.”

My company has the COO office which were previously line of business professionals do a lot of the traditional “HR” stuff. Like deciding headcount, etc. at least they can be a little bit more palatable.

In almost the identical boat. 25 year sales career and have gotten one phone screen in six months after which I was not selected for advancement.

Most HR departments are staffed solely by single, overweight, bitter, shrewish women who are drunk on power and looking to Kamala their way to a promotion.
We have exactly this going on. I like where I work but have been receiving more appealing solicitations from elsewhere. I seem to be valued in my field more by outsiders than inside my employer. I tried not to be a dick, I informed my company of the market situation and said “let’s work on a new deal and a promotion.” All the VPs have 3hr phone calls with me asking me to stay. CEO calls me in, says they agree I’m a unicorn, and by their own market analysis think I’m one of about a dozen people in the country who can do my job…BUT that our middle aged HR cat lady has noted they can’t compensate me as such because we have male/female and white/minority equity issues. They offered me a promotion for about 30% less than what the market would sustain. I laughed and started the countdown clock to my departure. When the leadership lets HR run the place or runs it in fear of HR it ceases to be an effective business operation.

The “HR” at my small company does nothing but do a bad Michael Scott impression and make problems for the rest of the company to clean up. It’s legit that bad.

I have done the same thing, but I wonder if that might get your application thrown out anayway.
I also wonder what happens to your application if you don't answer the "optional "DEI questions at the end of the application.

That’s a great start, HR is useless.
They’re worse than useless. Last week I was required to sit in a mandatory training class for all hiring managers for annual “action planning” training where we “learn” how to set goals for our teams that align with the overall corporate strategy.
The class was about as exciting as useful as it sounds.

I don’t know where you work but VP is not near high enough a position to talk with a CEO anywhere I’ve ever worked. There are four levels of corporate title between CEO and VP at least.

<300 people. We’ve happened to keep the VP title meaning something and only have a few. I lopped COO and CAO in with VPs for sake of post.

VP > CMO > CEO
At a company with nearly 90k employees.

Are you really this ignorant that every company is a Fortune 500 with 1,000 executives?
Eta: if you don’t like the companies hiring practices, is it really somewhere you want to work? Some of you guys are worried about getting your resume tossed by DEI issues, but that’s likely not somewhere you want to be anyway

You will never get objections from me when it comes to trimming HR.
