Contact Centres no customer satisfaction
Anyone on here from customer care and contact centres? All Enbridge cares about is money! Don’t care about customer satisfaction at all! I heard call centres are told to lie to customers and deceive them because Enbridge wants all customers... — read more
EGI ReOrg 6 months in...
How’s it working out for everyone that stayed? Is merging the legacy utilities like mixing oil and water? Is it bringing out the best of both worlds or just caving to the lowest common denominator?
So how screwed up is SCM?
So between the SSC, Category Management, and BP, how screwed up is SCM?

Your opinion on Enbridge IT ??
I'm absolutely struggling on what the value of our internal IT has become. I find it incredibly difficult to navigate the waters to get anything done. I find the people unresponsive, the management does not sort out problems, but just lets them... — read more
Is there anyone left who ENB has not POed - from article OIL PRICE.com
The CER formerly NEB ruled against ENB Today concerning suggested policy changing to fixed demand - SHELL and SUNCOR seems to have won the argument on too much market control - So any ideas how we find the dividend and all the kings men
Houseplant Policy
Is anyone else laughing their a– off at the new “Houseplant Policy”?! Are they going to walk around and take your plant away if the pot is 6.5” in diameter or if you have 3 small cactuses instead of the maximum of 2? While the rest of us worry about... — read more

Union Gas People . Time to go Unionized.

Who will be the scapegoat?
Someone’s head will roll. Should start at the top for buying Spectra’s POS infrastructure to start with. But the bosses will find somebody else to blame. No names. Roll or department will do. It will be done before preliminary NTSB comes out.
Texas Eastern pipeline Just blew up in Kentucky one k--led
Safety used to be a big thing at Spectra, but the dividend comes first. Did Enbridge outsource the pipeline Integrity program or just do some cost savings by putting off inspections??? Let’s just give out stock options to the dead’s family and those... — read more
Should Al be BOEF’d
Seriously. Spectra acquisition is a disaster. Line 5 going to be shut down. Can’t finish line 3. Sandpiper and Northern Gateway flushed millions down the toilet. Share price dropping like a rock again.
Unionize
I hate saying this, as I've been on both sides before and dont have anything good to say about unions. However, I think as a collective group, we should start this conversation. Might seem too late for a couple areas, but it's gone past the point of... — read more

Any groups come to mind?
Stand Up for Safety
I've attended all the Stand Up for Safety events over the years, and this last one was an utter pile of c-ap. In the Spectra days, these events were meaningful and focused on stories. There would be many people in the room tearing up over the moving... — read more

New Layoffs coming in next 60 days?
Can anyone please confirm.
Why are so many people quitting?

Funny
It’s funny how there are so many posts and rumours before anything happens, then when it does like last week when 100 people were walked out it is relatively quiet on here. That just proves how many people who post on here just do it to stir things... — read more
When is the next round?
I wish they would just get it over with so we can know where we stand. Regarding the rumors of layoffs by the end of March, I wanted to ask have they started already and if no is there any more precise info on when they could happen?
What positions are eliminated?
I see people reporting that the explanation for their layoff is mostly that their position is being eliminated. So what positions are we talking about?
Weird management structure
I think a lot of the frustrating things that happen at Enbridge are caused by the weird management structure. The ratio of few people who actually do work vs people leaders is wacky. Managing 3-4 people does fill an entire 8 hour day, so to try to... — read more
