Vantaggi
Absolutely none. I would not recommend working in the HR department.
Svantaggi
Extremely poor management Bullying culture Poor communication Micro-management Really poor HR knowledge within HR leadership team Poor decision making e.g. decisions in HR are often made based on personal opinion and Company politics rather than whats best. Style of management is to 'kick', not to lead HR staff often told 'if you are going to act like children, then we will treat you like children' Oppressive environment No development opportunities (sneered at) Certain senior HR people plagiarise other peoples work to ensure self preservation (and to secure their bonus). Performance management is non-existant. Staff are constantly marked down in yearly review and NEVER rewarded. Policies and procedures are not adhered to internally. Toxic environment and culture HR sick leave is really high. HR staff turnover is high. People are scared to 'speak up' and when they do, they are bullied out. Others resign. Aggressive and passive aggressive behaviour towards staff
