HR protect the company first, the employees second.

100%. The rebranding of some HR departments as "People Officers" or "People Team" drives me bonkers. When push comes to shove, they will always protect the interests of the business before the interests of the employee. Full stop.

You are right, but to be fair. "Human Ressources" was an awful name to begin with.

Just remember what hr stands for. You are a resource. No more than a stapler, that can be replaced at any time

There's a reason they're called "Human Resources" and not Human Relations.
