Editorial Policy

At Grove HR, we believe that content should be as useful as the software behind it — clear, actionable, and built for real teams facing real HR challenges. Our editorial mission is to publish accurate, accessible, and empowering content that helps HR professionals make confident, informed decisions in a rapidly changing world of work.

We cover everything from hiring and onboarding to engagement, culture, and performance — not with fluff or filler, but with honest insights backed by expertise. Our goal is to turn complexity into clarity, and to offer practical knowledge that teams can actually apply.

Every piece we publish is created with care, checked for quality, and reviewed for relevance. We know our readers are busy. That’s why we write with intention: less jargon, more meaning; fewer buzzwords, more value.

Our Editorial Process

Our content team is led by Jordan L. Mercer, who works alongside product managers, engineers, and real HR professionals to ensure we’re addressing timely challenges in ways that are both insightful and grounded.

Each article goes through a multi-step process:

  • Topic research based on real user needs
  • Interviews with subject-matter experts (where applicable)
  • Content drafting with a focus on structure and clarity
  • Editing for tone, fact-checking, and reader value
  • Final review before publication

We avoid filler content, AI-written posts, or SEO games. Our goal is to help HR professionals lead better, not just click more.

What We Publish

We focus on content that supports our users and reflects our values. That includes:

  • In-depth HR guides
  • Workplace trends and analysis
  • Performance, culture, and onboarding frameworks
  • Product feature breakdowns
  • Case studies from our Grove HR community
  • Interviews with startup leaders and HR experts

Our platform is built to serve growing teams — and our content is too.

We also welcome guest posts and contributions, but every submission must meet our editorial standards. Guest authors work directly with Jordan L. Mercer and our editorial team to ensure alignment.

Accuracy, Attribution & Corrections

Accuracy is non-negotiable. We credit our sources, link transparently, and regularly review content to keep it up to date. If we quote research, cite studies, or refer to external ideas, we always acknowledge them clearly.

If we discover an error, or if you spot one, please reach out to editor@grovehr.com. We aim to review and respond within 48 hours, and publish corrections promptly when needed.

Editorial Independence

Grove HR is a product-first company, but our content isn’t advertising. We don’t publish “salesy” pieces or promote features that don’t work as described. Our editorial content is built to educate first, and we proudly maintain a clear line between marketing and meaningful content.
