And wake up on March 1st? We’ve been under so much pressure and facing uncertainty for weeks now. I have a life to live and bills to pay, and it would be great to finally find out whether I should be looking for another job.
Tomorrow 2/14
Tomorrow is the start date, some will be let go tomorrow. Just a heads up.
Managers signing NDAs?
I was talking with someone today and they said managers and directors have been required to sign NDAs regarding the layoffs? I guess this means that managers are going to know something in advance. Hopefully someone will spill the beans here... — read more
Is It Worth It?
To those who had been in the industry for a long time, is it worth staying and enduring the periodic/cycle of layoffs? did the prestige really mattered working for a so called huge public corporations? did the money you made really increased your... — read more

STIP multiplier of 1.65x
GE says 2023 was a landmark year for Enbridge! STIP multiplier of 1.65x! What a year! LP had record volumes! The future is so bright I gotta wear shades! As a reward, 650 of you just gotta go!
SCM HR BP’s
I sure hope the SCM HR BP’s are on the list. They serve no purpose and are likely over compensated overhead.
Number of VPs
Does any know how many VPs Enbridge actually has? I've heard some numbers thrown out but want to confirm.
Local 975 Layoffs
What are everyone’s thoughts on the email from local 975 received on Friday afternoon?
$1.73B Q4 Profit!
Gotta love the corporate greed. Making money like crazy, yet cut the people who actually do the work. Shareholder value over anything else. If only everyone just didn't show up for work for a few days. The leadership team would see how little they... — read more
Greg Ebel enroute to Toronto Offices
Heard threw the grapevine the ceo is taking a flight at 10am to toronto. I already started packing.
Any Idea What Group or Department is at risk?
Just curious about rumours going around what departments and groups may be targetted for layoff in Ontario. I have not heard much myself being in a very small secluded group.
USRs Ontario
I hear from chupka that all USRs (utility service rep) are on chopping block.
Great questions out of Stoney Creek
GOOD JOB! 👏 Thank you.
Toxic enbridge
It's unfortunate the Enbridge refuses to learn from their past and continues to repeat those same mistakes. All while demanding loyalty from the staff while offering none. They keep talking headcount..if Greg Ebel were any kind of Leader he would be... — read more
Enbridge US GTM Region/Field All levels from hourly, individual contributors, to people leaders are being targeted.
Yes, they are targeting both Region and field employees in the US GTM. HR and management told me that it was a targeted attack. Supposedly based on performance, but neither I or any of the field employees that have been told we will be leaving have... — read more
Don't wait to be laid off
If you're miserable at your job, but waiting to maybe be laid off, you're just torturing yourself. I used to clock in 60 hours a week at Enbridge. Despite a decent paycheck, the pay didn't match the stress and constant pressure. It felt like the... — read more
The thing is, Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.
It's a problem of motivation, all right? Now if I work my a-s off and Enbridge moves a few extra cubic meters of gas, I don't see another dime; so where's the motivation? And here's something else, Bob: I have eight different bosses right now.
Pay Parking @ VPC
One idea that is floating around to help "greenwash" the GDS BU is to implement pay car parking at the Toronto VPC office. Exemptions will be made for carpoolers and electric cars first and possibly other exemptions offered in the future. Charge... — read more
Employee Survey 2024
I wonder if they will have an employee survey this year?
I wish Feb was over
I can’t wait anymore to see how it will all turn out. I am a nervous wreck.
Itchy and red
Anyone have a home remedy to cure jock itch?
Union Numbers
The true Union number across all locals is 125.
Has it started yet?
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
Lay it all out
I will tell you this. I have lawyers waiting and licking their lips on this purge. Its going to be a blood bath for a couple years. Any dismissals occurring with the result of contractors taking up slack will be an easy win. Enbridge better lawyer... — read more
Class action lawsuit for discrimination
Hi everyone, I figured I would get the discussion going now before it is too late. I have been considering filing a lawsuit against Enbridge for the discrimination of these layoffs that was brought to light with yesterday’s email that stated “we’ve... — 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
Gas Distribution Ontario - People Leaders
If you have reports that are all union staff it would seem that your chances of being on "the list" after seeing the last few posts. The company will need fewer of you.
Voluntary Severances Being Offered
There was an email that went out today that indicated that the multiple unions that represent the unionized Gas Distribution Utility Business Unit workers in Ontario were approached by the company and offered to extend voluntary severance packages to... — 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
Does anyone know if the yearly kids colouring contest for the 2025 calendar year will still take place this year amid all this cutting going on? I really hope so. My daughter made this really awesome picture of a big boat sailing off into the... — read more
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?
