Thread regarding Enbridge Inc. layoffs

Enbridge will ever be healthy again, financially or otherwise

The negativity within Enbridge is cancerous, and I don’t think the company will ever be healthy again, financially or otherwise.

The current leaders don’t seem to understand that a company’s success depends on its employees, and that the minute the leaders start abusing them, they will take the company down.

The problems the company is experiencing in the community (sending in bailiffs to claim $14 K of an ENGO’s property yesterday; insisting on destroying the Indigenous wild rice wetlands in Minnesota; being disingenuous about the Line 67 border crossing, the DAPL fiasco) are external manifestations of the internal cancer, the immature leadership team and the slow-witted board.

I’m hoping someone with sense steps in before this once great, although not perfect, company gets carved up into pieces and sold off.

In the meantime, be glad you’re not there.

Bumped from @PPrMbpQ-gje. On point.

What are the “buddies”? Haven’t heard of that, although I’m likely out of the loop on that.

Until the sr management (especially rdo) is dealt with! Or they are willing to let go the useless "buddies". The stock price will continue to go down

Look at yesterday alone! Investors are done with enbridge

More people related (salary, hiring freeze..etc) cuts are coming and elt believe that will make more profits for the company...money comes first, employees and safety last (if it's even on list these days anymore)

As an earlier commenter noted, it is indeed perplexing watching this company eat itself. I don’t think the “transition” will end well, and think investors know it. I know I’ve divested of all Enbridge holdings.

It hurts my heart. I truly cared about Enbridge for a long time and did my very best for the company, including defending it during the Marshall spill. Now, when I watch the way the leaders treat people, I feel sick. I guess no one one cares about how I feel, though. As long as Al and his gang get rich, all is well.

It all started after Uncle Pat retired.......the decline in flex credits, the 30 years worked gets 6 weeks of holidays now (was 25), non cost of living increase (3rd year coming up), recent pension and benefit decrease (which apparently is better for employees), hearing rumours of wage decreases coming up. ALL the valuable employees that Enbridge needs that got laid off or fired..........so bad! Terrible Managers and Directors that are a huge problem, that are still hanging around!

Thanks AM.........great job on running this company, maybe i should say nice try..

Enbridge Spectra merge looked good on paper........not so much in reality, a few things over seen would be an under statement!

My question is how many more cuts before a worker can walk across the street and work at a lumber yard for the same amount of money as Enbridge?? not far away...

The ELT is in its darkest hours and needs time and space for introspection. Give it that time.

Enbridge says that safety won’t be affected by the cutbacks, but, who, ultimately ensures safety? The employees. And the leaders don’t care about them. Given that the feeling is mutual, I fear for our Great Lakes. Innocent victims in the hands of a careless company.

With all the cut back! Wouldn't our safety be affected? I thought leak is not acceptable! Or "lesser" profits not acceptable!

I considered throwing mine in the river but didn’t want to pollute it, so just threw it in the trash.

Get rid of the Enbridge ring. It’s the height of hypocrisy. Enbridge’s leaders have made it clear that there is nothing special about being an Enbridge employee. It’s a case of, if you’re reaching retirement age or don’t have the support of the right people, you’re gone. Too bad for you. Employees are expendable. Wonder how these expendable employees will be taking care of Line 5 under the Straights of Makinaw or Line 10 under the Niagara River? Sends chills down my spine thinking about it.

If any members of Enbridge’s board are reading, please put serious consideration into firing Al Monaco. It makes me so angry to watch what he is doing to this once great company. Why is he so careless? What would Pat Daniel think? Please don’t be asleep at the switch this time.
