Everybody keeps saying there will be layoffs but can anybody provide even a rough when? Next month, next year, next decade? Anything?
We don’t do this lightly
If you don’t think lay offs are coming you’re not paying attention. The mgmt here will save themselves and sacrifice the rest of us without a moments hesitation. Then who’s ever left gets to hear the same old spewing garbage about the hard decisions... — read more
Pipeline capacity problems caused poor performance
Just when we expected that we were in for a smoother ride the Q3 results painted a diferent picture. The sad thing is that these circumstances are not likely to change any time soon and the oil market will not stay at this level forever. Hope that... — read more
Cenovus Employees - this is unfortunate
You folks have done a good job, good work. It is unfortunate the pipeline situation occurred and the back-up in oil sands inventory is causing employment heartache. Yes, the company made some poor decisions, but it's broader than that. Canada cannot... — read more
Is it true?
Layoffs this week??
Wonder if CVE fears a takeover on the cheap?
The assets are good and the CEO has shown an ability to generate excellent free cash flow from those assets. Reallly good free cash flow. Just look at last quarter. Makes one wonder if the call for cuts is because he knows CVE has a great future once... — read more
MEG wants production cuts, Husky doesn't
Bet Husky wants the advantage for their recent offer.
Thought on "This is an extraordinary situation brought on by extraordinary circumstances"
Q3 earnings call indicated production is being cut back. Other companies are too, but the CEO mentioned it only takes a relatively small volume of production to exceed the takeaway capacity and that drives the wide discount. Wonder if the integrateds... — read more
This is an extraordinary situation brought on by extraordinary circumstances
https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/cenovus-oilsands-cuts-1.4903385 One of the country's largest oilsands players, Cenovus Energy, is urging the Alberta government to implement "temporary" production cuts across the oil sector as Canadian crude prices... — read more
Could it get any worse
KXL pipeline now on hold, oil price collapsing. This oil patch just can’t get a break. We’ve been hanging on with a thread now what? Layoffs soon?
Cenovus recommends oilsands production cuts
“We are going to do our part but we are not going to carry the industry on our back,” Cenovus president and CEO Alex Pourbaix said on the company’s earnings call, adding that other oilsands producers would also need to reduce output. Given CVE's... — read more
$241M Loss for Q3, $1.3B Loss YTD
Senior management is really "knocking it out of the park" at CVE! Big Q3 loss is likely due to increased 2018 bonus accruals.
Clearwater sold
Stay tuned ex COP. Clearwater is sold and you will all here something soon. Be prepared to bite down, This ones going to hurt. Most of you will be gone. A few will stay on. Best O luck
People are Leaving, or close to leaving
Too many jobs opening up in Calgary and people are leaving or planning to leave in the new year. Such bad management at the top. They came in too arrogant and made changes to people benefits too quickly. Let the Cenovus brain drain begin..
Why don't Cenovus & Husky merge?
Good combination; CVE has oil for Husky refineries.
Wonder if Z storing oil in reservoir
with spreads so wide?
Deep Basin?
What’s going on with Deep Basin? Awkwardly quiet...
Cenovus boosts crude by rail transport- two new contracts signed
Finally a sensible move, and not a moment too soon. Guess our management came to their senses, and realised that anything is better than whining about pipelines being full to capacity, while laying off workers and cutting contractors. It doesn't take... — read more
Bad CEO
Here's why I have lost a lot of confidence in our new CEO: 1) He has not made significant and meaningful changes at the top, such as removing the significant incompetence of EVP's such as DZ and HC, as well as the VP's associated with the COP... — read more
Good ceo
Fixing the mess for shareholders. Everything done before him is sunk cost. Now it's about reducing debt and operating to maximize cash for shareholders. Rather than complaining, go find a different job and improve your situation.
Fireside chat
That was brutal. That’s all I can say.
Ex-Conoco employees at Cenovus
What are the ex-conoco staff like to work with at cenovus?
Crescent Point
230 layoffs for them what will the number be for Cenovus? Good luck x COP staff.
It’s official! Layoff Round #6
Just heard from an official source. Mgmt is working on a big layoff round for the fall (before bonus time of course to save money)
Next divestiture?
Kaybob and West Clearwater although I suspect anything in Deep Basin is on the table. East Clearwater apparently has no decent offers. Probably have to sell the whole junk pile to get the debt under control.
So Happy I quit!
This ship just keeps on tanking! The person who was responsible of the COP deal got a big promotion to the CLT when the new CEO came in. Those who spoke against the deal all got packaged out. What an amazing company!!
Wondering why recent posts are getting pulled
What exactly are you trying to hide by deleting recent posts ? Is this an indication that you know what you did was wrong ?
Times are good
$150 in 9 months. Mark my words. Money will flow.
NuVista Pipestone/Wembley
Thoughts?
Communication Advisor
Why is Cenovus looking for a Communication Advisor on Indeed. All the people around there and you still need to look for more?
Any news on layoffs?
Been too quiet lately...
Low Oil Price Futures Expiring
And now the improvement begins!
Are we any closer to selling Deep Basin?
Perhaps we should start a pool? When will it be sold and to who? And go...
Conoco selling CVE shares
Conoco is just kicking cenovus when they are down now. Maybe Conoco buys Cenovus in hostile takeover?
New rumor!!??
New rumor that CVE is considering partnering in to the kindermorgan transmountain pipeline?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!??
Don't be so glum chum
We are coming off the bottm.
CVE laid off technical staffs today
Appeared CVE laid off some more staffs today mostly technical people and as usual, upper management stayed behind to collect fat salaries and bonuses without doing any real meaningful works to get this once great company around. Need to revert the... — read more
