After being laid off last february I have finally found a new job. two shifts in so far and it is great. for the rest of you still looking dont worry it will all work out the lies, backstabbing and ladderclimbing that dominate CVE thankfully dont... — read more
"They want us to leave"
Apart from the fact that it sounds very logical as the best way for a company to get rid of some employees without giving them severance pay, I really can't say that I got the impression that they are putting pressure on me to quit. I mean, I’ve... — read more
People who want to be laid off
I understand that the situation is bad here and that most would like to work in other companies where they will be more valued and where they will feel that their job is more safe. I’d love to go too, but I wouldn’t want to be laid off. Why... — read more
2022 layoffs
Will there be any big layoffs in 2022?
WINNER WINNER - CHICKEN DINNER !!!!
Severance in January (Over $300K) EI New Position with: Promotion Defined Benefit Pension
A few observations...
You now must be ranked as EXCEEDS on your annual performance review in order to achieve 100% of your bonus target. (And they changed the rules in September- 9 months into the qualifying year.) For all of that stupid hockey banter at our town... — read more
Huge accumulated dissatisfaction
So far, my colleagues have been leaving one at a time. What is happening now? Several colleagues intend to give notice almost simultaneously. If I were the management, it would be a nightmare for me. I would already be thinking about whether I will... — read more
Integrity job posting
Apparently they gutted the integrity team and now they have a job posting on indeed today for a technologist. No doubt hiring someone who will work for peanuts. Is G.A. gone?
I finally think CVE has finally gone too far
Let’s see how many of you don’t mind taking it again and again. I left last week.
Morale at all time low
25% of current employees are happy 75% want a way out.. Depression, stress are leading indicators of a unhealthy work force..
Incompetent pretenders
The more incompetent pretenders they hire and the more respected they become, the more real talents are forced to leave. These mediocrities ruin the atmosphere, destroy the morale, and act like real predators. Does Cenovus want to become just another... — read more
Office 365 and desktop migration project are a royal mess!
I was informed that i won't be migrated until sometime next yr. Its been 1 yr now and sounds like this will go on until 2024..???? What the heck CPMO?
Does this annoy anyone else?
As I watch CVE stock climb close to $20, it just gets to me how the CLT is making millions more on stock options, but they took away the $20 for 20 incentive. That would have been a one time salary payout for LCVE employees. Has anyone received... — read more
How little things have changed
I got laid-off from Cenovous 3 years ago. i see how things have little changed in that time. Heard they're dumping all of their cr-p liabilities on Caledoni and i3. any truth to this?
Why is CPMO misinforming the organization on overall status of projects???
Last week at CSLT Townhall, a slide was presented that showed 90% on target e.g budget & schedule.. I almost fell of my chair!!!!! This is quite inexact / inaccurate as we keep increasing the spend and time to deliver on pretty much all projects... — read more
Comp reductions?
There are rumours going on of an overall realignment of our compensation structure in the company. I don’t know what this means, but my team is sure talking about it. Is this just a rumour or any truth to it??
Layoff targets never make any sense
How do you explain that they laid off a man who loved his job and was great at it, very dedicated, very productive, while there’s still a person here who has no idea what he’s doing? It really frustrates me, because when they cut people there is no... — read more
Glad I survived another brutal week of layoffs!!
Im thankful again this stress is never ending!! Many of my buds were let go!!
Layoffs are never done with Cenovus
The only guarantee with this company is they will continue layoffs weekly or monthly. We continue to say good-bye to some of our friends and some great workers.. We are left to do more work while they look at more ways to cut our pay/benefits etc. ... — read more
Donut Days
Remember those donut days. Let’s improve morale. All talk. Let’s talk about jailing those crazy protesters which happen to be mostly aboriginal. Oh wait we need the aboriginal folks to be on board with what we do. Oh let’s not put those guys in jail... — read more

Do we get to keep the Surface Pro?
Those that got laid-off, did you keep your Surface Pro?
Got laid-off today Wednesday Nov 3.
F*ck you Cenovus.
Record everything with HR and management
Saw this on another company page here: The comment about documenting and recording everything is so important. The statement about Canada/Alberta being a one consent state is correct about recording conversations, so always assume HR or whomever is... — read more
Goodbye everyone
I resigned today for a new role at a different company. It’s not easy leaving but I’m already feeling excited and recharged in my career. Good luck!
Weekly cuts until End of Year
Continue until they reach targets..
Can Cenovus track people who post here?
I've wanted to share some of my experiences working here but am worried about the company finding me a taking legal action? I wouldn't reveal too much, but could the company use resources or take this site to court to get IP#s of people posting? Just... — read more
Why is the old CIO still around and active?
I coincidentally realized he is still active in the system! What the heck? It must be very awkward for the current CIO no? What is happening here boys and gals?
Treadmill Recommendations
Looking for treadmill recommendations now that it’s getting chilly to run outside!
It's like a different company
I have never been as unhappy with my job and the way my career is progressing at Cenovus as I am now. This company has changed drastically just in the last five years, and don't even get me started on ten or more. Employees went from being an asset... — read more
Cenovus devalues is employees
Due to inflation, food prices are up almost four per cent over September 2020, according to the latest Consumer Price Index released by Statistics Canada. At the same time oil prices are up to $70-$80 a barrel. Now what would you like to bet that... — read more
Some Northern Alberta Assets for Sale
Some assets were put for sale this week.. Cenovus is cutting the fat!!
ERP program update
Well that was a useless update yesterday at the leader information session. Post update, I still can't tell where ERP is at .. not surprised at all! Can the guy even spell SAP? No real update and we were asked to keep it high level on questions cause... — read more
