More to come, anyone heard anything? We need more politicians to help us all.
More Kool Aid please !
Ah yes, what a remarkable era for leadership. After all the sweeping changes and grand announcements, we’ve clearly reached the pinnacle of organizational excellence. Truly inspiring. Now that performance reviews are safely behind us, it’s the... — read more
Re-Org
Anyone else frustrated with the drawn out re-org process? I like by asset focus, but with how long this is taking, makes me question senior leadership’s ability to implement a plan/vision.
Budget sign off next week - departures?
Apparently the board will sign off on budgets next week (Dec 2nd etc). Should we expect more departures, or will they wait till the holiday season is over?
Not Surprising !
It’s not entirely surprising to see these results when a company that’s neither growing nor shrinking decides to place relatively inexperienced people into senior roles across different parts of the organization, all at once. From one group to... — read more
Can anybody please provide more info on layoffs?
Is it over? How many people were hit? Which areas? Anything?
Hitting tomorrow
Big layoffs hitting tomorrow unfortunately
Layoffs Over Leadership: The Silent Cost of Corporate Decline
What began in 2020–2021 as an initiative aimed at restoring the company’s focus on value creation, operational efficiency, and performance has unfortunately evolved into a cycle marked by layoffs, talent attrition, and a culture increasingly focused... — read more
Avoid Pembina
There was a time when me and co-workers could get things done and when we brought up issues it was listened to. Things felt like we were doing things together. Today? It's harder to turn a blind eye to the unethical behavior, the lying and cheating... — read more
Taking From Us Again
So I hear personal use of company vehicles for those of us that were given it as part of our compensation is being taken away. Hope Jarod doesn’t forget it was given to us as part of our compensation.
Pembina has always been more of a who's friends with who culture
This isn't a recent trend at Pembina it has always been more of a who's friends with who culture than who is delivering top talent. From the masses of manager/senior managers who will only work on things that get them time with VPs to leaders who... — read more
Next round of layoffs
Should we expect it in June or later?
Time for VP/SVP Musical Chairs?
It feels like we're overdue for the VP/SVP shuffle. For many of them, their incompetence is starting to show and we can't have that. They need to be moved around to allow them a chance to unsuccessfully climb up different learning curves and buy some... — read more
What is Pembina Doing?
Pembina continues to let go valued employees. Do they not realize some of these employees could be deployed elsewhere? I know of recent cuts where the people who were let go could be valuable resources elsewhere. Pembina has spent a great deal of... — read more
When can we expect more cuts?
Are March rumors true?
Employee Survey Results
They had an employee survey not long ago and 60% rated the company as bad or worse, did not enjoy their job, etc. the remainder 40% was divided into categories like ok, I like it, I’m happy. A small 7% portion said it was great. During the rollout... — read more
Gang groups
Why this company is corrupt is beyond my understanding. HR is horrible, other departments like finance/accounting/projects have so many issues. When this can be improved?
Diversity
Pembina has too many "diversity hires".
Corporate culture
I was surprised when I got here because I thought the stories about the bad corporate culture at Pembina couldn't be entirely true. Even the pay I'm happy with can't compensate for the horribly toxic vibe here. In fact, I don't think there are any... — read more
What a company
Applied for one of the positions at Pembina. Had an interview. I was not impressed. I had a feeling that its a “sweatshop” company that doesn’t improve much but just want you to work extra hours each day. How is it at Pembina now?
Pembina 2023 Pay Increase
I am very dissatisfied with my 2023 pay increase. Despite the fact that the company had a very good year in 2022, the average pay increase is very low compared to what many companies gave this 2023 due to inflation. Many companies that I know of gave... — read more
Buy stocks in secure
They lost Mick Dilger they f-d up. All the good ones left with him
To those who are struggling or unsure at Pembina:
Reality check. To some of you: Cut the executive worship cr-p. Value of direct compensation received Scott Burrows President and CEO (previously, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer) $7,262,659 Cameron Goldade CFO (previously, Vice... — read more
Layoff today - Dec. 21 2022
Someone was let go today 3 full days before Christmas as is tradition around our BU. Need to flex that middle manager muscle to keep the adult children who report to you in line. HR always complicit. Totally unnecessary move but on par for the... — read more
Why doesn't this company take mental health seriously?
A lot of people are struggling here and there is no support. Just grind, grind, grind, company, company, company. Suck it up. Two colleagues in my BU (good performers) are on performance improvement plans with deadlines in December and knowing this... — read more
Remember when..
Pembina received Covid funds from the government? Then laid off ~300 staff "due to the pandemic", instituted share buybacks, and the C-suite received "pandemic bonuses" near or over a million dollars? Now Pembina is quietly crying about a tax on... — read more
There are very few good managers
Pembina would be a much better place without ego-driven managers who don't really do their job at all. It would be interesting to know how many great employees left the company primarily because of them. Why does Pembina like such managers?
Document Control Supervisor Job Posting
Interesting, but not surprising. Shows how mismanaged our group is. The former DC supervisor was laid off in 2020 because her supervisor was threatened by her. She was smarter than him (IR) and ran circles around him (easy to do on a perpetually... — read more
How much truth is there in that?
I hope it is not true that small layoffs are happening right now under the radar.

Any talk of layoffs
How are people making out at this toxic company. Any rumours of impending layoffs?
Top Employer 2022
How much does the company pay for this particular exposure? 75k+? Just curious how much they are spending to try and rehab the companies reputation. Those grades are bogus *This article was prepared with the financial support of the... — read more
Work-life imbalance
My question is for those who have been here for a few years: was it ever possible to have a good work-life balance here? When I accepted my job here, I knew I wouldn’t have much time for family anymore but I didn’t believe it would be nearly... — read more
Job search and references/reputation smearing from Pembina
Looking for advice. I've worked here for 10 years and it is time to move on for a number of reasons. Some posts on this site (which are entirely accurate) allude to people resigning and are smeared and trashed behind their backs internally and... — read more
Benefits used to be among the best in the industry
Things have changed drastically in recent years. Medical, pension, hours, everything has been affected in one way or another. I wonder what's the next thing they're going to focus on and strip as much as they can. There are fewer and fewer reasons... — read more
Google "pembina layoff" and this page is #1
The fourth result is to the long list of unethical transgressions here. The chickens have come home to roost and the internet doesn't forget. Haha
Am I the only one who's worried about layoffs?
I think they've been prepping the field for a major round for a while now. I know some of you think that the attrition is high enough to compensate for possible cuts, but that's just not true. Attrition is the same as it has ever been. I'm thinking... — read more
Pregnancy and gender discrimination in TBU
