Project Allowance

For those of you who are lucky enough to get it I've been hearing that it will go away very soon. Apparently Enbridge management does not like that Spectra employees are getting the $$. Another thing taken away.....

IDP

What is the point of IDPs if your boss is the only one who looks at them? If your boss doesn't care, then it's just a waste of time. Especially if he only cares about himself. They make it sound like your IDPs will actually help your career. The... — read more

What clowns

Terminations occurred last month & they still haven't generated the Cobra election documentation. I was told the letter with my password to apply online was sent April 6, but haven't received it yet. Anybody else without health insurance?

It isn't about good people or not.

It isn't about good people or not. They are going to outsource a lot! Entire departments and functions will be contracted out. Cuts are also projected to happen again in September after the summer projects are done. They just didn't do it now as they... — read more 

Keep your resumes up to date

For those getting pay cuts...

And being told not to discuss them, remember that the NLRB has said that not only are companies not allowed to prohibit you from discussing your pay, but it's illegal for them to make you sign anything to the contrary. So, discuss away. 👍🏼😘

Demotion Day

Yikes. That stung more than expected. It took years to get there and less than one month for Enbridge to take it all the way. When they give us our 10% pay cut next year, they'll be erasing four years of merit increases. I guess I should be happy to... — read more

Let's play a game. AM scoreboard

All those pay cuts to pay for GH's golden shower. Errr parachute.

Going to offset GH's severance. Hearing north of $5 million. Hey if they're looking for more cost savings, they can lay me off. I'll settle for 10% lf Greggo's package. I'll sweeten the pot even more: I'll pay for my own going away celebration.

It's not done yet; more coming later this year.

The recent cut is not enough for the $540 MM savings the management estimated right after the merger announcement. There will be more soon. This is Enbridge's style. They will continue to cut as they seem necessary to achieve their short term target.

Layoffs

Over the last year they have made doing your job absolutely miserable. I think this was in part as a Contractor to get you to quit because Layoffs did not happen and then if you were fired you had to fight for your unemployment benefits that they had... — read more

What was the formula, why so secretive?

If the layoff criteria was based on a formula such as "manager with no or few direct reports" = higher salary = efficient savings, why not disclose that? One reason is that it may eliminate good people because of where they fit in a demographic. The... — read more
