Advice

Are Paycuts Like Mini-Layout?
You're spreading the pain to the masses. It still seems like a regressive shift, those at the bottom of the pay scale feel the pain more. I am thinking correctly on this? Does the company do furloughs, or educational sabaticals, or anything short... — read more

Unique Cultural Double-Speak at Enbridge
I am sitting on the side lines and keep reading terms such as "People Person", fascinating. One might think that a superior being ( some benevolent some not ) has to deal with subhuman mortals. VWO, BOFF, BIFF, S___ Show, I____t, – just a few... — read more
Enbridge and NASCAR - why those of us who are long gone ( non-fans ) still like to watch the game/race
Both seem to go round and round in circles / ovals, again and again and everyone just can't wait until the inevitable crash happens ( the main reason to watch ).
THE NEXT DIVIDED PAYMENT: How is this going to be funded??
Is there any good news coming out about Enbridge? Politicians in US shutting down functioning pipelines and delaying projects. Overall demand for oil is questionable for the near future, we freight oil, no product to move no revenue. FYI -... — read more
How’s the employee morale these days at Enbridge?
It was already bad when I left three years ago, so I can only imagine what the situation is like right now. And from reading the posts here it's obvious that things haven't improved much since then, quite the opposite. I guess I made the right... — read more

Complaining why???....
I see a lot of complainers here. Why??? Enbridge is still employing you. You still have a good paying job, so why the gripe? Consider yourself fortunate in these trying times. I was worried about my living situation when COVID-19 hit. What if... — read more

Two generic emails and a premature removal from Workday. Thank you for the lovely send-off. Seriously, good luck to all. This better have meant something to those left to carry on.
Line 5 and your job
So do the math. Line 5 brings in $1.5 million dollars per day. Give or take. How long before this shutdown starts to hurt. What if the boobs in Michigan succeed in making it permanent? Who’s head should roll for this cluster - of fun?? Vern?

OEB throw out he carcass and all the big birds peck at it, then the little birds after. good money for all
Will there be another VWO Opportunity?
Does anyone know if there will be another VWO opportunity later in the year if more cost savings are needed? I didn’t see anything in the Q&A on this question.
What’s next that VWO is done?
What does everyone think will happen next? VWO is done with the exception of those that are leaving later than a June 26. COVID is raging in the US so the reopening is in danger in many states which may hurt oil demand again. Will there be... — read more
Layoffs and the Fix-All Unity ERP Project - LOL
Can anyone ever remember a new ERP coming close to functioning as promised!! Yet, they will still probably do more layoffs to justify the cost. What are the supposed deliverables and which departments will take the hits??
Opinions on Enbridge and Native Americans?
Personally, I feel Enbridge is hypocritical in claiming to be sympathetic to Native American issues, while at the same time were complicit in the abuse of protesters at Standing Rock. Does anyone share this belief? Does anyone else have difficulty... — read more

PCSLD Team Seems Like An Island Of High Performance
Somehow this team keeps delivering great results in spite of being positioned within a disfunctional IT operating model full of inefficient processes, and a company that funds its dividend increases through cost cutting measures alone. Very few... — read more
VWO will go down as a disaster
Has any other company ever offered such a ridiculous mass exodus and then reject people who agree to voluntarily leave? Do you know what it's like to have a detailed package presented that allows you to plan for a change, psychologically commit to... — read more
Layoffs will continue
There is no way this stops at now. The economy is much worse than when this was planned, and this “lottery” did nothing to weed out the poor performers, or others that the organization wants out. The slow quiet reduction that was happening before the... — read more

Will they keep their word?
This is Enbridge after all. Do you think they'll stick to the whole "no layoffs thanks to VWO" or will they turn around in a few months (or even weeks) and say that we need layoffs after all?
Thank you VWO applicants!
AM just emailed that because enough of us applied for VWO, there won't be a company wide layoff. As one who is not in a position to apply for VWO, I want to thank those who did. Your sacrifice is helping me keep my job, a job I and my family... — read more
