I worked in a variety of positions in HR for 20+ years. I 100% back this. I was sick of all the politics and nonsense. I'll never go back to HR.

If you experience sexual harrassment, discrimination or witness any illegal activity from the company, get a lawyer and blindside the crap out of them. Going to HR about the problem gives the company a headstart on protecting themselves.

A close friend of mine who was an HR manager once advised me to never volunteer ANYTHING to HR. They work for the company, not the employee.

I got employed because I’m open and honest.

I got fired one year later for being open and honest.

HR: we investigated ourselves and found no evidence of wrong-doing.

Been telling all my coworkers for years HR is not your friend, they simply exist to keep the company from getting sued

Best part of working from home is not having to deal with coworkers in person. No drama. No HR. Just get your work done. Dont use the computer for ANYTHING other than business. Collect paycheck.

My dad told me about this with the army 25 years ago. Never volunteer for anything, never complain about anything, never admit to anything. They're out to get you.

I worked for Bechtel Power Corporation as an engineer, and had an HR guy tell me that "nothing we talked about would leave his office", so I gave him the run down on the shenanigans I saw in my immediate management.
True to his word, "nothing was said outside of his office", instead he brought my manager INTO HIS OFFICE and TOLD HIM EVERYTHING...
Go figure where my job went after that.

As a good 😮 lawyer once told me, ' if you dont write it down, it never happened '

[paigethomas]

Thank God someone is bringing all the HR toxicity to light. Most of the HR departments I dealt with over the years seemed to hire the most corrupt and deranged individuals they could find.

If you think of HR as companies in house lawyers, then you will never be disappointed

When I realized HR was supporting the manager and his select employees that were regularly bullying me, I started contacting the companies counseling service instead. The manager, employees, and HR rep that was actively trying to cover it up were all terminated within a month of me being wrongfully terminated.

Many years ago, I realized the game is fixed, not just HR but the entire game: work, college, HR, taxes, careers, housing, investing, politics, and basically all of it. Even marriage if you marry the wrong person. For decades I’ve been discovering just how deep the rabbit hole goes. Very few people know that it is VERY deep. Everything is set up to keep you in your place, not to advance you. This is why good honest hard working people typically don’t advance in any significant way. It’s not set up for that.

My degree is in HR. By the time I graduated, I realized I was getting a degree in lawsuit avoidance!! This video just proves my reality check!!! I went into training and have NEVER regretted not working in HR! Sooo sad!!!

I once heard this quote about HR: “HR is here to onboard new employees. Once a new employee is hired, they no longer give a damn about them.” [Their loyalty lies with the company printing their paycheck.]

[darshana]

Our HR department keeps it a little too real. My coworker complained about something and the HR rep told her, "just so you know everything I do is designed for the companies best interest and I'll be acting accordingly with them in mind". I was like, well damn.

This should be required viewing by every college student about to enter the workforce.

This is 100% legit. As a labor union member, HR is the last person I would ever talk to about issues.

I used to work at Home Depot and a co-worker who was a real POS and often bullied everyone else was also dealing drugs on the job. I reported him to HR and the first thing HR did was go to him and told him that it was me who reported him. He threatened my life and harassed me to the point I requested to be put on a different shift opposite from him. In return Home Depot fired me
