No. HR is not your friend.
NEVER TRUST HR.
Multiple bad experiences across a number of places HR works for the COMPANY and is not your friend nor are they looking out for you. They're in the business of CYA.
No I'd gTFO
What do you expect HR to do? This is the agency life. They're barely there to bring bodies in, much less keep them.
Have you tried to work it out directly with your manager(s) first? If you haven't, that is likely to be HR's first suggestion.
I wouldn't share unhappiness with HR. I'd work it out with my manager.
In this situation now and getting the F out. Manager isn't going to change and will clearly never support me, so what's the point in staying.
Don't burn bridges in advertising... too small of a world.
@saatchi bad experience?
Yeah I'd love to stay at my company, but in order to change teams, you have to be recommended for it by... you guessed it... your manager.
Fair. Curious as to how others handled when part of the problem was their department or manager
Trying to decide if I tell manager/hr the real reason I'm leaving (once I do get an offer) or if I just take the high road and try not to burn any bridges.
@saatchi always good to keep in mind. Good perspective @accountsupervisor would leave but want to figure this out at this company
