   Human Resources (HR) is not your friend at all. They exist to protect companies' interests. Always remember that.

     @nixCraft don't trust any part of the company that refers to you as simply 'a resource '. - No, I'm a person, I have a family, a life and feelings. Treat me as such. Unfortunately, HR don't do that.

     @nixCraft like a soldier who want to be a human but can't. Maybe it's the way how any human society goes.

     @nixCraft In theory, our interests should be in-line with the company’s..

     @nixCraft in fact nobody is friends with us, I think everybody is only thinking about the interests of the organization they work for or their own interests! right?

     @nixCraft Yes- HR is there to look out for the company. But given my experience at (company name redacted), the top four founders, plus the head of HR, were the only ones to make money after the company was purchased. So- look out for the company and self is more accurate. I wouldn't even say dog eat dog- more chimpanzee eat chimpanzee

     @nixCraft I read an article in Theguardian.com at the start of the Covid-19 Pandemic, it related to karma visiting an HR executive and how she wished that she had been more empathetic to employees...HR is indeed a fallacy that serves corporate interests

     @nixCraft The name says it all. "Human Resources". HR sees employees like laptops or desks. Resources that can can used, depleted or replaced.

     @nixCraft @lisamelton You have to advocate for yourself. Document everything and have a lawyer ready to go.
