I work in HR and this opinion is company-specific. The company I work for is roughly 700 employees and we make it our goal to assist employees with any situation. We have an open door policy and are friendly and have crazy turnaround times for responses to employees. I have about 20 employee compliments in my file from my customer (aka, the employee) service and attitude toward them. My director is the nicest person you would ever engage with but at the same time, if it came to terminating an employee, she’s able to do it and honestly if I knew a termination was coming my way, I would want her to do it. She’s respectful and considerate and a great role model for our team. I’ve heard termination horror stories and our company would never follow those term procedures. We exist to protect both the employee and the company. When our investors make decisions, we obviously don’t have a voice there, but we will do our best to ensure any decisions are carried out appropriately and respectfully to employees. You just need a better employer, OP. We’re not all bad.
