About 3 months ago we got a new HR director, and since then there's been a few negative encounters with her.

A month ago, I went to her office to sign some paperwork. When I asked a question, she told me to stop "mansplaining" and raised her voice at me. It made me feel very uncomfortable, but I didn't say anything at the time.

Late last week, she was giving a presentation about a new HR policy. I asked a question about dress code, and she got very hostile and lectured me on privilege in front of the whole group.

After that, a colleague came to me in private and told me some bad stories. And when I asked around, more colleagues had similar stories.

A lot has changed in the last 3 months. The workplace I love feels hostile, and I know I'm not the only one who thinks so.

What can I do to resolve problems I have with our HR person?

First and foremost, keep your head down. HR is all powerful, and it sounds like this woman is on a hair-trigger.

If you have a good working relationship with your manager, bring your concerns up to him in private. Be polite, and be professional. Hopefully he will take your concerns up the ladder, and the issue will be addressed at the appropriate level.

Otherwise, start looking for a new job, because once she's past probation I don't think it'll get any better.
