There are some thank less jobs in the world. HR is one of them. HR is said to be spending arm of any organisation and they do not generate any funds directly to the organisation.

Hi,
Your comment about HR making decisions like a child is very absurd. HR should understand the business of the company to make the right decisions. When we don't understand our business and employees, we don't get recognized by either, and that's when we are not satisfied with our job.

Dear Rajeev,
The cost reduction by reducing some minor benefits that you enjoy might eventually prove beneficial to the long-term profit for your organization. I think the management does not unnecessarily want to 'trouble' their employees; maybe as of now it is the right thing to do, and the future may bring you lots more benefits and definitely job security.

Sonali,
Your points are very valid and thought-provoking. I fully agree with you. Bridging the gap will be the key role we have to play, and that challenge leads to satisfaction.

Dear Sanjeev,
Thanks for your opinion and response, but I am not at all in agreement with you on the point that if a person does not have less than 5 years of experience, he or she cannot manage HR policies well. I do believe that if you are hardworking and dedicated to your profile, experience does not matter. So, as an HR professional, I cannot agree on this point. We are here to discuss the job satisfaction of HR professionals who are honestly dedicated to their responsibilities, and then, even if for some reasons, their top management and employees are not satisfied at the same time.
Regards,
Sheetal :)
Well, you actually do not need to agree with me. "Happiness, hard work, dedication"... these are very subjective terms and cannot be measured. You cannot say X is more dedicated than Y or A is more hardworking than B. Whatever you give ultimately comes back to you.

Hi Sheetal,
Good question.
As far as I am concerned, I am pretty much enjoying my job as an important medium between management and employees. As Sanjeev mentioned, of course, we can't exactly measure hard work and commitment; however, these are required to excel in our responsibilities. The final result is always measurable, my dear friends. Okay, leave that aside.
See, I am pretty much enjoying my role as an HR professional in my organization. In fact, my employees and my manager are both satisfied with my service, so obviously, I too am enjoying my role a lot.
If you ask about the policies and other things, that's common in all companies. Employees are bound to accept certain policies; however, we should know the way to implement them. Employees can also understand the importance of the policies, and even management cannot implement all the policies as per their desire.
So, finally, an organization is a mixture of different tastes you have to accept and enjoy. If you love your job, then all things will be all right.
Always love your job and believe in yourself; then you can really make wonders.

Hi Kalyan,
I totally agree with you and believe I love my profile. I love my job like anything. It is one of the respective profiles, but the problem I am facing is that somehow, somewhere, you cannot keep both of them 100% happy - top management as well as employees. That is the point where I feel dissatisfaction.

Hi, when viewed as an employee, HR can have/ get job satisfaction/ dissatisfaction. It all depends on the whether the environment is conducive or not; whether the job is challenging or not, etc.
It really depends on your perception and organization. It would certainly take a few years for HR to become a full-fledged strategic partner within the organization's functions.
Rest, it depends on your needs and career mapping you have done and what you want to achieve in your career ladder :)

Hi Sheetal,
Yes, HR job is a thankless job. But the person working in HR should be prepared for that. It also requires very good people management skills to keep everyone happy, so it's challenging to acquire those skills and implement them. So, if you see it as a challenge and you like to take on challenges, then it's satisfying, according to me.
Enjoy,
