October will be a brutal month.. Many will be let go approx 700 ... May the force be with you!!!!

It's pretty to use Helix as intranet name. Reminding everyone Alex everyday :)

WFH has been great because I have a nice distance between the office that reminds me how terrible out exec leadership actually vs where I am in bliss, I do my work and live my life, I work pretty hard and def earn my paycheck and then some, but wfh... — read more 

Thoughts on how CVE handles vaccine mandates? Current messaging is vaccination is not required "at this time". The pessimist in me feel it's only a matter of time before employees will have to choose between vaccination or their job.

I know they have to do it because its a Federal program they can take advantage of... But it is so slimey that Husky and Cenovus received $122MM through the wage subsidy program in 2020 and laid of 1000's anyway to start this year.

For all of you sitting around waiting for a package. Think about it. You will need to get a new job eventually and a hiring manager will offer you less if you are unemployed. It’s better to find a high paying job and have the option to take it or... — read more 

I would most like to get an offer in the coming days before I end up on the layoff list. I hope for the best, I expect the worst.

As more and more people talk about future layoffs, I just hope that there will be no changes in the severance plan that would go to our detriment. Does anyone have any information about this? I have long been pessimistic about everything about... — read more 

The workspace is brutal. You cannot turn around in your space and can never find a room as people horde them all day to avoid being in the assigned microcube.

I heard there will be significant reductions in headcount in September. My source is a contact who knows a senior person in HR. No bullshitt. Stay safe everyone and good luck!

What do you think, can surviving a layoff here be considered luck or is it just an extension of the agony? I've become tired of layoffs and uncertainty. I have no hope or energy that things will get better here. I used to feel good about surviving... — read more 

is that they are cutting the best people. That's awful. Is it possible that they laid off a man who passed on an opportunity to move to a better company because of his loyalty to Cenovus.... He will surely find a new job very easily because he is... — read more 

Calgary integrity team layoff 10+ people already

I think every single Cenovus employee is at least considering their options, if not actively looking for a way out. At least everybody I talked to told me so. There was a time when this was the place to be but over the years it has apparently turned... — read more 

I echo someone's post that he/she is here for an easy paycheck. I, on the other hand, have worked at several companies in the industry and only for Cenovus I can't say that I got a paycheck easily. Admittedly, it may be for some, given that the... — read more 

Never-ending layoffs, this has really become tiring. I used to worry about losing my job, but now I regret I wasn’t on the layoff list a long time ago. Many are talking about a new round of layoffs coming soon. Does anyone have more details? This... — read more 

Crazy to work for a company where 4,000+ resumes get updated at the same time. Your beyond stupid if you stay here. Your going to love doing all the work of us that leave!!

Have you ever worked in a company that had more useless management? I have not. Would you feel any difference if most of the management left the company? Probably not. If it wouldn't be better, it certainly wouldn’t be worse.

By a show of likes who else is outta here soon as the phone rings i cant take this company anymore. 1st job offer im throwing in the pink slip favortism, nepotism, liars, seem to be running this place

I recently heard that Cenovus employees on the cold oil production side are going to receive a $30k bonus…and contractors get nothing. Anyone else heard anything about this?

I work on the ERP program and considering to leave, i have a good opportunity. I'm interested in everyone's thoughts but the lady in charge of CPMO seems to be lost and all over the place. What i was told from others is that the structure and... — read more 

It’s beyond out of control now. Too many people leaving. Can’t you just fire the CFO now instead of waiting. I think the Exec team is doing this to us on purpose to increase the attrition rate to save on packages. They will then blame the CFO and... — read more 

Do our managers deal with things like planning, decision making, organizing, leading, motivating? I’m not quite sure they deal with these things much. They reduced their work to controlling the company's financial resources. I would venture to say... — read more 

Someone here mentioned that they heard that severance packs have been drastically reduced. I hope that's not true. Am I missing something?

How many of your great colleagues are gone? Since all the colleagues I loved working with here left the company, for me working at CVE now and a little over a year ago, while they were still here, is completely different. It’s a change I can’t adapt... — read more 

Is the merger 100% finalized or is there still a ways to go? hoping my job is safe :(

No respect, on track to injury someone majorly. Complete disregard for employees. Couldnt pay me enough to go back

has anyone ever seen or worked for a company which has such casual disregard for its people you dont hear any horror stories coming out of the megs suncors and cnrls of the world. where did we go wrong? will it change?

More Husky Assets being sold!! Details coming soon!! Some Deep Basin in the mix!!

In January Cenovus layed off Husky Process Engineers. Today they posted a position for Sr. Process Engineer. What visionaries !!!

I love my job!! I get paid a ton. All I did this week was fudge every number and fake every test. I put in a lot of BBO’s and loto audits but they are all fake, I complete them in my lab while watching you tube. I have to keep my numbers up to keep... — read more 

If Husky was im the verge of bankrupsy in the last pull backn why have we now decided to adopt there lean, cheap bussiness modle that chases away any good talent and inovation?

Apple, Google, Uber have taken the lead to mandate vaccinations and pushed return to office to Feb. Alberta is taking away all isolation needs if you’re tested positive for Covid and no masks required in transit. Numbers are going up quickly. I know... — read more 

Cenovus will still have employees after the majority of people leave. They just won’t have good people. You can hire anyone if you pay them enough. As a result, our peers in the space will always outpace this company. Our advantage is... — read more 

How much is it possible to progress at Cenovus for someone who is not in the old boys club?

I was layed off on Tuesday. Despite being involved in eight projects at various stages of development. Solid performance reviews. Perhaps my Director felt I was too expensive?

There was a discussion at site today that there has been reports go to the integrity helpline about Racism and dr-g use at CL with witnesses named and nothing has been done about it. It seems that certain people at CL are extremely protected.

I got an offer from one of the competitors and I’m going to see how things look there from the inside. The situation there is not perfect either, that’s for sure, but it’s still better. I would like to discuss what you think makes the main... — read more 

Everyday more leave. What’s the plan?? We can’t do it all Cenovus!!

Tier 2 FOHs got canned but the top tier a$$ FOHs are going strong and bullying everyone and anyone. LHSE take note. Why’s their daddy still here?????
