The parallelisms with what I see and feel as I work are so uncanny. What’s funny is that the first article was written in 2005. Amazing how a five-year-old piece could still be relevant today.
Here are two articles; one published in 2005, the other I saw just now, about why (to generalize) HR sucks and what we can do to solve it.
Overall it’s a very insightful read, although I feel that the second article was more of an appeasement piece. Still, towards the end it directs the question to both parties; how we can all foster a great working environment and differentiate ourselves from the rest?
- The 2005 article can be found here: Why We Hate HR (Fast Company)
- The second one here: Why We (Shouldn’t) Hate HR (Fast Company)
I have read few of articles here and could say it was really interesting, thanks for sharing this.
