Thread regarding Enbridge Inc. layoffs

Been through the Imperial Oil layoff back in 2020/2021, some experiences here
a.) Even though someone (including lots of haters here) may tell you that you got layoff because your performance su-ks, indeed, sometimes it is just a fact that you are in the wrong role and/or team at the wrong time (aka Enbridge just does not need the team anymore, etc.), nothing related to your performance. It is no different from any divestment.
b.) Start planning for your next career move - prepare resumes, openly discuss with your networks about your availability, etc. or go back to school ?
c.) Keep your financials in better shapes - what can be postponed, what should still go ahead, etc. and prepare for a job search that may take 3~6 months. Yes, someone may tell you that the job market is so hot...blah, blah, blah, but I have also seen people take 6 months to find a job. Of course, if you can get your next job next week, great for you.
d.) Ensure you maximize your use of the remaining health/dental insurance benefits offered by Enbridge

I agree. We were given the warning. I take it as a notice to start looking for a job, including opportunities at Enbridge.
Dust up your resume. Get in touch with your network. Make a new search on LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.

this is why the 30 day window is a double edged sword. sure, you just put everybody on edge for the next month, morale is cratering everywhere, but it does give you a lot of time to prepare and all of a sudden you'll find that "urgent" matters for your supervisor are not as urgent anymore.

even though the feeling su-ks, I do feel a lot better knowing I have the better part of a month to ensure a smooth transition if I am one of the ones.

I do feel really bad though for the guys and gals who have lived by this company for 20+ years and probably chose to forego college for the promise of a secure career that are just bordering on retirement age. not the way they wanna go out.

It'll be done by March 1. If you think you may be impacted, there's no reason not to start your planning now - it's already Feb. 1 tomorrow. Don't make any rash decisions - but put your resume together, start searching, put out some feelers.

Be the responsible steward of your own employment situation. You've got the advantage of advance warning, something not everybody has had at ENB in the recent past.
