Are startup HR teams okay?

from Great Chat · host Mackenzie Bohannon, Angela Du, Ashley Mayer, Helen Min, & Sally Shin

With all this talk of looming layoffs and AI automation, we have to wonder: what’s the People/HR world like these days? Emily Herron, a longtime startup People leader and current HR Evangelist at Rippling, joined the chat to share her refreshingly candid and pragmatic POV. Plus: Travis Kalanick is back, baby, with the perfect narrative-moment fit. Meanwhile, Marc Andreessen breaks the internet with his latest hot take: the Great Men of history weren’t introspective. Please keep counterexamples to yourself. Mercury is back as the headline sponsor for year two of Great Chat. Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank.
