Honestly, this has to rank as one of the stupidest questions on the official Q&A page. The official answer " Don't worry there will be plenty of room with our current facilities" this is how clueless the Spectra employees are they have drank the... — read more

From Spectra another question..... in less than 500 words what does flattening the organization entail??
Spectra has Sr VPS, regular VPs, General Managers (somehow not quite a VP) most of the above have DIrectors reporting to them and the DIrectors have 0 - 5 Managers, Supervisors/ Leads/ Principal Techs and then staffers report to Manager. HOW FLAT IS... — read more
95% of Spectra Peasant class have never been through a layoff TOTAL DENIAL MOOD
"I've been through the ICOMPLY programming, clap my hands at events on command at Corp events, worked in ADUDITING WHERE EVERYTHING BEGINS" (a highlighted story on the Spectra Employee Page). Ship of fools jumping on to ship 263#.
263 - related numerology ( to determine their supposed influence on one's life, future, etc.)
If you focus on Canadian Penal Code 263 is: Duty to safeguard opening in ice (no mention of Hr TROLLS near the hole) 263 (1) Every one who makes or causes to be made an opening in ice that is open to or frequented by the public is under a legal duty... — read more
Enbridge ranked #263 by Forbes as Canada's Best Employers.

Work in the Galleria area?
Can't wait to work in the Galleria. That's going to add 30 to 60 mins to my morning and afternoon drive. Good thing oil prices are rising. Lot's of jobs are going to be opening up in Houston soon.
From SPECTRA -- official sounding propaganda - Questions for you
An HR sounding troll just made a post on the Spectra layoff page titled OFFICE SPACE - BASIC THEME: everything is going as planned, everything is awesome , please be gracious and welcome our new comrades from Enbridge ( coming to the galleria will be... — read more
What a week at Enbridge
Enbridge screws over its shareholders by buying back MEP stock at $8/share (didn't it IPO at like 26 or 27??? Closed at almost 9 day before); then they FINALLY give us real information on the merger and layoffs (VPs and up will know their fate... — read more
Spectra impact
Any idea when the Spectra impact will hit?
BOEF will lead us through!
Anyone hear the latest rumor? After they did such a fantastic job of boefing so many crucial employees last year (many of whom are now being paid more money to come back as consultants), boef is now in charge of figuring out why the hell so many... — read more
Sending positive thoughts
With the holiday season upon us, just wanted to send out something positive to those who have had to leave the company this year - especially those who were hoping to be here for the long haul. Hope new opportunities have shown themselves, and that... — read more
Enbeidge layoff...more coming December 2016.
This time more contractors.
Gas Assets ( Midstream G&P )
Lots of people are very curious where the gas assets will wind up at, Off shore is part of ENB I believe but the Mid stream was EEP but now is MEP, most if not all Mid-Streams that are operating are doing so at a loss due to the state of the current... — read more
Enbridge Power
So the new VP is in and he wasted no time cutting the whole safety department, and then other positions in the organization. The amazing part is he showed an org chart with names and titles, and then the following week cut those people out of the... — read more
I have yet to sing
Still more layoffs happening. The bandaid is sure being ripped off slowly, but perhaps there are only so many rolling bins at our disposal.
The Kitchen Sink
So here's what I heard that makes sense: The company we acquired is light on liquids and heavy on gas Interpretation: We will take over their liquids (not Houston), they will manage our gas business The company we acquired owns their building... — read more
A positive note
I second "no more safety moments" and better still no more time wasting b---s--- performance reviews!!! Here's a thought how about we all send back our No LTI shirts...funny how there is money for them...especially when 3/4 of the company will never... — read more
Poor Management by Unqualified People
I reposted tis as a topic on its own, cause its worth reading: I had 36 years at Consumers Gas/Enbridge. The employees in my department, the meter shop at vpc were offered a package and bought out in 2013...lack of production. What they did not admit... — read more
Is 5% or 370 Canadian positions enough?
Are things that much more efficient by reducing 5%? Seeing a lot of people moved into new roles that don't seem to add much value. Are these just placeholders for the next round? Very confusing.
IT Re-Org
Who ISN'T a manager now in IT? With the company goal to simplify the organization for improved efficiency and decision-making not sure how the new IT org fits that goal. This is the best we can do over the many months of planning & waiting. Here's to... — read more
Cheaper to let management go now that they've been demoted
Don't be fooled, more cuts are coming post-merger. Whatever a manager's package would have been this time around, it will be much less come March now that they've all been demoted. Ouch.
One of the best!
Long years, great people and experiences. A former colleague and friend once said "Change equals opportunity". Whether you are gone or you stayed, make sense of the change, and find out how to best utilize your talents. Be agile, flexible and be your... — read more
Out the door with class!

Walking through a minefild
It is sad times for all of us, whether one received notice today or not. I know that we are not in a same soup as those who were let go today, but working in these conditions feels like constant wade through a minefield. If you skipped one “layoff”... — read more
Dropping like flies
It's happening, people are disappearing. At this point it's better to be put out of our misery, and move on to a new life, than hang around in dread for another year. I wish I would have gone in the first round, at least they didn't have to live with... — read more
