Correct, HR is there to protect the company and side with the opinion of the manager. Learned that the hard way when I was giving feedback as an intern and got let go for "not fitting the company culture"
That is not true. They side with the company which can help with manager issues. But only if it’s truly the manager that is the issue. A lot of times though people get mad at managers no matter how good of a job they do because they can’t tell the difference😊
@@jonathandpg6115 However, let’s be honest… There are some horrible managers who should not be in management or anywhere near a leadership position. If you’ve never experienced one then consider yourself fortunate.
I wholeheartedly agree. And I'd further add that when you're leaving a company (by your own decision or otherwise), always decline to do an exit interview. Be polite (or silent), but just don't do it. There is never an upside to the employee--HR is not going to give you your job back, and they're not going to give you a raise or remove your manager. At best, if you're lucky, HR will receive the exit interview neutrally. However, any information obtained can and may be used against you. It's not worth it. Just say thanks but no thanks, and move on.

Yup. HR is to protect the company’s best interests. Starting with the high(er) value employees.

Me too!
After 42 years of working I too learned this lesson the hard way!
