Husky Energy employee here... Today, January 26 is the cull day, it's almost noon and haven't gotten that dread call from HR or heard of a coworker from my department getting the boot yet, maybe some other groups have already but they tend to keep a low profile during these kind of events.
In 2016 I was part of the unfortunate laid offs, but returned to the same company in 2017. I was mad to see that some lazy, useless staff still had their jobs whereas I always worked my a– off, stayed late often, drove substantial savings and yet they let me go. Let’s see what happens this time.

It's an accounting exercise, never has been and never will be a skills exercise
"good and productive people were let go, and other questionable ones remained."
That is always the way, as the good ones get raises and cost to much over time, no wonder the place went out of business
It's finished. I don't get it, very good and productive people were let go, and other questionable ones remained. What would the criteria be? High salary?
Saving millions just like every contract Husky ever signed eh
Yup got the axe!
8 million in one year!!!!

I think it all depends if the ‘friends and family’ pass is still in play I guess people might still get away with things.

Good point there, no one care, no one looks out for you. Quit putting yourself over.
- I stayed late working efficiently which resulted in $8M in savings in one year alone. So up yours dumb–s.
Staying late and "working your bag off" does not equal good work. A lot of tire spinners work 10 hour days because they're not really doing anything. Quit putting yourself over, you're probably as sh–ty as the rest of us.
