Trust is gone

I think there is a general lack of trust in AM and senior management. After countless layoffs people just go to work to collect their paycheck and wait for the next round. This lack of trust prevents cooperation and will stop OEF from succeeding.

There is always mention of more synergies to be had with investors. Clearly the board and executives are running the company with shareholders in mind and do not care about the employees. The leadership team needs to watch "Why good leaders make you feel safe | Simon Sinek" on youtube. This is clearly not the case in the company and it is unsustainable until it is. All it takes is one disgruntled CCO operator who doesn't trust management to create the next multi billion dollar loss. Look at BP, they never recovered.

I wonder if shareholders know the state of affairs within the company and that's why the stock price is down. Given the price I think it is only fair that AM takes a 10% pay cut (or more) with the rest of the employees. He should be feeling the financial pain instead of benefiting from it.

I wonder if the trust issue Ell improve now that they’ve told us that we’re valued.

The lack of trust issue, for me anyway, is a big deal. As a long-time Enbridge employee (nine years), I used to come to work and feel that I could be myself and say what I thought (in an appropriate way). Now I find myself keeping my mouth shut, agreeing with things I don’t really support just to be agreeable, and keeping to myself. I no longer go out of my way to share information, and I don’t trust anyone. I know that others are doing the same. It is clear to me that our collective behaviour is affecting Enbridge’s culture. Is it also affecting our bottom line? Do our leaders even care? I wouldn’t ever ask anyone that question at work.

Wonder what it will take to gain some of the lost trust back. Personally, I think some honest tailgate meetings at the VP level and up would be a start. Wonder what others think are some ‘first or second steps’. The continued low morale needs to be acknowledged, imho. And soon.

Why bother telling them to watch the youtube video? they just post in their Linkedin to show how human they are and then do the complete opposite.
