Insight Subtype: employeeBreakdownAndGrowthHumanResources

The Employee Breakdown Percentage – HR insight quantifies how many employees work in Human Resources (HR), what percentage they represent within the organization, and how that number has changed over time. This is useful for evaluating a company's focus on people operations, recruiting, onboarding, and workforce growth support.

Why this Insight Matters

  • HR growth can signal headcount expansion and hiring scale-up.
  • Declining HR presence might imply budget cuts, consolidation, or slowing growth.
  • Steady or flat HR numbers help indicate organizational stability.
  • This breakdown allows sellers to tailor messaging around tools that support or optimize HR-driven initiatives.

  "summary": "3 HR employees account for 2.0% of total headcount (148).",
  "description": "The HR team is currently 3 out of 148 employees. HR headcount has stayed flat year-over-year."
}
