I don't know if I am living under a rock but I haven't heard of anyone let go yet. Not management or union. Have these cuts actually started?
Opinions matter, except only to some
I appreciate every comment on here for the most part. People post their opinions and the way they feel for a reason. Unfortunately, a work environment has been created where people don't feel empowered to speak the truth on how they feel because of... — read more

Criteria for layoffs?
From what I can see, we will have all kinds of anxiety throughout February. I can not see any system to it and even begin to predict who and why will be gone. It seems to me that performance, age, seniority, union membership, anything of the sort... — read more

Unifor 975 - 100 people being fired
The company has told local 975 they will be eliminating 100 unionized employees. Sounds like the union will not be cooperating with the company, forcing the company to take the 100 people with lowest seniority. This will mess with the companies... — read more
Being a part of the union isnt safe anymore!
heard through the grapevine the loser unions chaps are also on the chopping block this year. they deserve the layoffs. watching hard working employees get swindled into leaving while they enjoy their cushy jobs. make them feel the pinch!
At Enbridge, nobody's safe
In the last twelve months, the company let go of folks who've been with Enbridge for decades and others who've only been here a year. They've shown the door to some of our top performers and even some not-so-great ones. People who thought they were... — read more
Enbridge-Gazifere Gas Distribution Kids Calendar Colouring Contest

Teams or In person
If you receive an email from HR, will you go into the office to say goodbye to colleagues or just take the Teams call?
If you are over 50, you should be worried

word of caution
at this point pretty much the entire company knows about this website. that includes execs and their lap dogs. don't be surprised if theyre sending sh---y people on here to shill and flood posts with misinformation. be vigilant.
Is this place worth working for anymore? This is the first round of many more days like this to come. This inept group won’t get it right.
Unbelievable what this leadership group is doing to the mental health of the workers. A month to find out if your world will be turned upside down? Even animals get the courtesy of a shot to the head to put them out of their misery. Can’t even get... — read more

Have You Ever Considered Leaving Oil and Gas Totally?
Aside from money, what keeps you working for oil and gas? Are the roller coaster cycle and layoffs even worth the stress? The pension is nice if you can actually attain the tenure and not get laid off.
Can You Still Sleep?

Well I am on the list, field employees check the Marks Account
Sadly, I have discovered that I am on the short list for termination event. My Marks Commercial account 2024 allotment wasn't reset like my fellow colleagues. If you are a field/operations/trades employee take a look... Good bye for now
They can lay me off
I don't hate it here, but I've been at Enbridge long enough to be entitled to a decent severance payment, and in all honesty, I'm ready to move on. This is not the same company it was ten years ago and while I will miss some things - like my... — read more

Don’t expect package like VWO
I was told the package for this round of layoffs are way less than 2020 VWO, they gave a max of 2 years back in 2020, that will not be offered this time, 3-12 months max. So don’t rush into signing anything right away.
Your Reasons for Staying
Serious Question: What is your reason for staying especially if you had been with Enbridge for a long time? Enbridge had been laying off people since 2015 and obviously stockholders is more important than employees.
