Having recently talked to a workplace attorney about this, you are correct and the parent poster is pushing a naive and simplistic idea of how workplace litigation works.
It is important that you give the company notice of bad behavior so that they can be held responsible later if they fail to stop it. That notice could come from your attorney if you want to feel more protected, but saying blanket "don't talk to HR ever" is not correct.
- koolba 9y agoThe “don’t talk to HR” is the general case. The more specific one is don’t talk to them till you’re ready to leave. That doesn’t mean you don’t keep a log of transgressions and talking points prior. It’s critical that you do. But if you approach HR with anything involving wrongdoing on the part of someone associated with your company then you better be ready to leave as well. It’s not how it should be, it’s how it is.
