Yes. They normally just verify that the dates you listed are accurate. Most HR at large companies will not comment on work performance for potential liability purposes

No. And I couldn’t tell you how to contact HR even at my current firm much less any prior one I worked for.

Let me tell you, I love the flexibility at my firm, OK pay, and I do a great job, and am comfortable pushing back when I have too much work . BUT managers are terrible at planning and recently end up putting me in preventable situations where I need to work 55 hrs or have the staff work the 55 hours. I literally cannot since I have a family and my daughter is only in day care a few hours a day, I'm already doing my max work. Is it crazy that I may want to leave Bc I hate making ppl miserable?
