Hr leadership is terrible

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay, reliable bonus, and fair health benefits. However, HR cannot counted on to help with questions or concerns.

Cons

HR is incompetent and will not follow up on any issues. They do not return phone calls or emails and will walk away mid conversation. Good luck with assistance on employee issues, recruitment or benefits. The corporate person recently hired is ruthless and will not respond to hello in the hallways. The manager of the department abuses her power and absolutely refuses to respond to email. She is extremely passive aggressive and will go out of her way to belittle or question and retaliate when pushed to do her job. Most of the time we have to go to corporate to have her respond to local employee issues. The list goes on. She puts company at legal risk.
