      Yes, yes, i know. My manager just send me an update that we can do it. We must fill those in, in august. The perfect time to ask for customer, client and collegue review. The holiday season is here for a reason. The reviews themself are done in October. So that is soon.

    The truth is that nobody is entirely sure what HR does or if they actually do something at all. How does one even get a job in HR? Is there a course for that? Or do you just have to be someone's nephew or something? I'm serious here, what are they supposed to be helping with?

      Well, to be actually fair they do quite a lot - all administration stuff (that middle management doesn't do) is within their scope. Employment contracts and addendums? HR. Payroll? HR. Benefits within a company? HR. Managing hours via ERP? HR. Recruiting new candidates? HR. Resolving disputes between employees or employees vs a company? HR.
      Edit: before sb will think I like HR, not really, I work in a technical position. But I just like to stay truthful to the facts.

      @@mllenessmarie funny that payroll is managed by finance, benefits maybe sure, but it's once in a while type of task, hours? in most companies devs log their hours themselves, recruiting new candidates you need actual tech people, resolving disputes is the biggest BS I ever heard of. It's literally murica (and Australia) thing, imagine being so fragile you cant talk to your coworkers... not to mention if you ask them something to do they will sit on the problem for a month and do literally nothing. Also they are usually braindead, but I'm not sure if it's the job that make them into breaindead people or braindead people apply to HR, could be both for all I know

      @@DefinietlyNotShiro Sorry, you're right, just checked and it's finance department. It's just, at least in my company, if there are any discrepancies or questions regarding the salary, HR is the first point of contact.
      And HR does little if there just too many of HR employees hired. If the number is reasonable, then they have their hands full. And I speak it as sb who works in technical position, so I work a lot myself.
      As did resolving disputes - you're so wrong. If we're talking about really small company, then sure, but for big tech? Lawsuits and anonymous tips to labour inspectorate. And in general, if things get heated between employees, then HR fulfills the role of middleman and negotiator.
      I feel bad for you, because you clearly had wrong experiences and such perception of the whole group. I can assure you there are companies that have good both HR and recruitment teams.

    1. HR is usually forced to do the BS of management. Don't blame HR. Blame management.
    2. HR's main role is to get people working and prevent lawsuits. Yes. We see floor level employees being crass and inappropriate all the time. Sometimes they get promoted to managerial positions because/even if they were crass and rude. That's why we have policies to control behaviour. Sometimes firing the rude manager/employee means shutting down a whole division. Go figure why people pay HR for having to deal with this crap.
    3. If management had their way, they would fire everyone over an email. We insist that management let us do it in person. Most managers are dicks with no respect which is why we often do it alone to avoid lawsuits. We also insist on doing it legally with as much advance notice and severance package as prescribed by the law. No, the law is not the same everywhere. It sucks and we know it. Many of us fight extensively behind the scenes to do it decently and lawfully. You should do that too. (cough, go vote, cough)
    4. HR's role is also to deal with shitty employees. While most people are generally fine, you just need one creep to bring the house down and prevent a whole division and manager down. We can generally deal with floor level creeps BUT WE HAVE NO POWER OVER MANAGERS because WE ARE EMPLOYEES TOO. Keep this in mind when the CEO or General Manager takes 6-8 months to hire a new manager.
    5. HR is a department of secrets and confidentiality. It makes that the loneliest department because we literally aren't allowed to talk about our job. TO ANYONE.
    It is your right to bitch about every department in public. Do it if it makes you feel good.
