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

IT is not non critical

Get rid of managers who manage less than 6 people

How about all the managers that manage less than 6 people? We have a ton of managers with less than 6 direct reports. Most managers dont do any work, they "manage", so they should be able to manage 6 people. Enbridge' s rule of 3 direct reports is... — read more

To the 4th quartile, everyone!

Why does HR tell us our goal is to perform in the fourth quartile, the top 25% of the industry, when they also tell us that they only want to pay at the mean average? So they want top performance for average pay? How do they reconcile this? Fourth... — read more

MAADS Decision is out

It’s on the OEB website. 5 year deferral period and 50/50 earnings sharing with customers from year 1. Seems to be very far off from what Enbridge asked for. Seems like a bad decision for the utilities.
