That’s right. HR was not ready today and behind schedule, so they had to push the majority of the plan to layoff people to March. I heard there were only 100-200 people today across both companies. More like a warm up
Finance was not really touched today because the CFO wants the year end work done first.
About 1000 in total since the beginning of January as of the end of today. March will be more at a lower level set by area managers/executive including those given March as their end date already which is small minority.
That $30M the management is paying themselves should have gone to beef up packages during this pandemic. That’s why our mgmt are a lost cause. Dirt bags.
My wife list her job yesterday, Jan 26. Couple more ppl from her combined team of 18.
I'd say in such job environment in Calgary even 1 laid off person is far too many.
Unless they can afford retirement.
There was no diversity. All the coloured folks were laid off since they had no one to speak for them. Quite shameful.
Who, besides the media, said CVE was laying off? Nobody. The number 20-25% is over the next year.
They want to torture the employees until late March. It's a tactic to force more duress so people sign off on the packages as son as they get them. The more upset you are the more likely you are to accept the first offer without consulting a lawyer.
This is fake news! Our group was hammered today, 40% of our group was gone in just a few hours!
Our entire group was gone including managers, around 15 in Calgary office. They will do field tomorrow.
This is true, but closer to 400 today. This is not even close to being over.
No way they got close to 2,000 people. They did a huge screw up.
Actually I thought it was pretty lite as well. Out of all CVE safety only two people were let go and same with other teams, like only two people here and there. I’m thinking they screwed up and now March will be the big one. Our company management is totally inept.
much more than 100-200
This is wrong. I know at least 100 Husky people that were laid off today and I know very few people on the Operational side.
