Is the opposite of sales HR?

Costs money, produces no revenue, typically makes getting sued worse, intelligence of a wet fart. 

Having been in leadership I thought my opinion would change but it hasn't. 

HR people are the dimmest bulbs, the flattest crayons, and the dampest pair of socks you'll ever find walking the Earth. 

If you can't do anything useful. Including being an employment attorney. Be HR.

Without HR, we wouldn’t be hired. Also, who’ll ghost us when needed?

Marketing, it's marketing, Hr is there to prevent you from being sued. Necessary evil in many cases. They are certainly not the life of the holiday party though.

HR at my last org fucked up a maternity leave and discrimination case so hard they had to settle out of court for nearly what it would have been at a judgement just without the bad press.

Honestly set a record in my book for how much more in legal fees they caused.

I just hate how we have to be excellent in rev roles or GTM in general and those stupid fucks get to mouth breath all day. More than that they usually have gone out of their way to make my day worse.

Like paying for someone to drag everything down in speed while adding red tape.

Tbh many orgs don’t need HR just documentation and a proper employment attorney if shit hits the fan.

Yeah most HR teams suck and are worthless. Basically there to protect the company.
