- pmiller2 8y agoI’m interested in hearing more about this if you’re inclined to share.

- SketchySeaBeast 8y agoI've heard things like "if you have a problem and are unhappy, just go to HR". Nope, I'm not going to rant to them, and I'm certainly not going to talk to our in office mental health professional.
- dopamean 8y agoI learned this one as well. One week after going to HR with a concern I was fired.
- Humdeee 8y agoMy SO is a HR Manager. I hear the constant drama first hand over dinner. My take: HR are angels after hiring and during onboarding. After that, any correspondence will be kept to an absolute minimum.
- officialchicken 8y agoWho benefits the most from the work your SO does... employees or the corporation? As others point out, they are to be avoided at all costs! And usually play a really bad gate-keeping role when it comes to IT hiring. It's a hard thing to learn early in your career.
- Humdeee 8y agoAre you actually asking? If so, I think you misinterpreted my post. Please re-read, we agree. If HR has anything to do with any part of the technical interviewing process, the company is already misplacing their use. I won't touch HR with a ten foot pole unless absolutely necessary.
