Clearing this up
The people left are only in that sh– hole because they were the rubbish left !!! Good operators all went of on choice
No wonder people here are bitter
What do you expect from people who work in such toxic environment? This place has been going down the hill for years now - politics, nepotism, verbal abuse... these are just a few things we need to deal with on a daily basis. Being able to vent here... — read more
Couldn't wait to start work today
I was chomping at the bit to get going at DQE today. I just thank the lord everyday that I am still here. Not only have I taken a massive wage drop but the gaffer lets me do more work for my wage drop. I love getting paid less for doing the job of... — read more

New CEO Announcement
Coming up soon
Leaving this place was the best decision I ever made
Six weeks and I feel like a new man. I forgot what it feels like to not dread going into work every morning. The only thing I miss are my coworkers, but to them I wish to find a way out of DQ as soon as they can, since I don't remember any one of... — read more

Are the redundancies now finished?
How many in total?
Points system completely corrupt
Points have been fabricated so that even if someone wins an appeal they still won't get enough to be safe.
Why has the Plant Manager never asked why so many VR's have been requested?
Why has IB never asked they people applying for VR why they want to leave. One or two, sure you can ignore but given the numbers involved requesting it surely he must be asking himself why so many people want to leave. If he had taken time to ask I'm... — read more
