I have recently accepted a position elsewhere and I can tell you that Enbridge is no longer the place to be. Too many bad decisions and now the employees are paying for it. Yet, AM and the ELT are not feeling the pain. Stock is down -22% in the last 12 months. Poor Spectra folks!.. They were better without Enbridge.

SjBMwax Good luck and best wishes. Meanwhile the rest of us are walking on eggshells. Won't be much longer and more will follow in your footsteps
Sound familiar??
Efficient Confusion[edit]
In the Efficient Confusion style, also called Confuse & Conquer, management take an approach where roles and responsibilities are fuzzy and never made clear. Tasks are switched from people to people without any clear plan behind. This is mostly used in unstructured, low experience organisations that need to hide problems to external parties. It helps to delay commitment and prevent from having to tackle problems head on. It also give management a high feeling of control since people are stormed with short and specific Todos that prevent them from taking a step back and think. The drawback is that nothing important for the long term really gets done, or gets done with an astronomical amount of overhead
Good for you! What a rotten place to be!
Well said. And bang on.
That's right. Every company goes through changes. Don't depend on any company to make things happen for you. You make things happen for yourself! You get out of life what you put into it! It's not up to any company to make sure that YOUR life is full of roses. All companies go through changes along with the changing economy. Your attitude will make or break you, in and out of your job.
What makes you thInk any CEO or executive team feels the pain regardless of company name. Rememberer the auto crisis, those guys still took private jets when they went to the US gov to ask for bailouts. Name a company that has never gone thru changes, major downturns and turmoil. Know of a little company called Apple? In1985 it was pretty much written off, look at it now. I’m not saying Enbridge will be the next Apple but the only thing that is consistent in business is change. I don’t ha e a horse in this game but the negativity is priceless. Enbridge is not the only company cutting, ,my previous company cut staff by 50% in 3 years. Perhaps with a change in provincial politics in 2019 will bring decent policy changes.
