Is it wise to talk to HR about changing projects internally ?

I don’t think I can have a good career in BlackRock under my current manager. I have tried to apply for internal mobility but there are no open positions ( I’m guessing because of the hiring freeze ). So as a last resort I’m thinking of writing to HR and requesting them to help me move projects within BlackRock. Is it safe and wise ?

Best to find it yourself or move to another company. HR is ok if you don’t mind your current mgr finding out

He will one way or the other ... I’m only worried about job security and not what my manager thinks about me not wanting to work with him ...

“I don’t think I can’t have a good career” — then stay!

So what did you do? I would say do not talk to HR, they only exist to keep the firm from getting sued. Start networking and find yourself another role if you want to stay at the firm.
