Human Resorces can be a rewarding career. Positives: It definitely appeals to the people side of business, and avoids overly-analytical perspectives. You are definitely in the know, and will know many corporate secrets...without the rumor mill feeding you misinformation. Its also a wide discipline...training, counseling, recruiting, and researching are all under the wide swath of HR. Negatives: The downfall is you deal with people's problems oftentimes...which can stink. Also, you officially become part of the "establishment" part of an organization...which reads NO FUN! In terms of salary, obviously this depends on experience and location. If you are fresh and have no experince, chances are you will start pre-generalist and make between $28-$33K a year. After a few years of getting 2-5% raises your top pre-generalist salary will top out at 40K or so. Generalists and HR managers can make between $35K and $60K depending on experience and whether your company lags or leads the market in terms of salary. Some of the most monetarily rewarding HR jobs can be recriters...some companies use a commission structure on top of a base salary that rewards you for the length of a recruitee's tenure. I have three friends in this field that range from $30K for a junior level, $70-90K for a senior headhunter, all the way to $150K for a guy that started his own recruiting business. These are not set in stone amounts...remember that many components make up a salary (your negotiation, experience, company policy, geography etc).
