Under appreciated in scada tis
After all the town halls promising that plenty of work is on the horizon, scada leadership treats us like we are non energized and disinterested. Now there is a rumor that projects and parts of the department are going to be sourced and gutted down... — read more

Working for Money. What is your motivation???
I was talking to a lot of employees and contractors that I met within the company and if not in front of their immediate supervisors they all say the only thing that motivates them is money and if there is anything better they will leave. What is... — read more

Although a growing mean-spiritedness has gripped Enbridge over the last five years, the work situation is still good for certain employees. If you are one of the employees that the ELT has a reason to protect, or if you are, in turn, protected by one... — read more
The leadership doesn’t want the feedback from the workforce
If so, that's truly pathetic! The company was doing some employee surveys and "focus groups" following the Spectra acquisition, but that seems to have stopped about a year ago. It's also been a while since they put out a feedback survey of any kind... — read more
Do we have a date?
Do we know when next round of layoffs is coming? Any indication on the actual date and locations?
The damage is done
I don't see why people care about when the layoff is at this point. Everyone I know is looking so if they find something they leave. Until then they stay and if they get laid off then it is what it is. It's not like after this round of layoff there... — read more
While the leadership makes millions, the rest are shown the door
Therein lies the problem. Enbridge pretends to be better than everyone else in the industry with all its talk about safety, integrity and respect. But through its actions over the last few years it’s proven to be just like most of the other... — read more

Continuous small scale layoffs
While rumours on this board always predict another "mass layoff day", the truth is that layoffs have been happening continuously on a smaller scale. I think that's how they do it now.... layoffs gradually over a period of time rather than the epic... — read more

Being laid off was amazing

Incompetent managers making over $200k
Why are we not laying off managers that make over $200k but can't do the job of any of their direct reports? They just know the key words that they use in meetings to sound knowledgeable. They are always allowed to fill the roles if someone quits... — read more
