I don’t know which was a dumber decision, the new garbage Laptops/tablets they bought or spending millions to develop 1TC. The people in charge of both of these decisions should be fired in my view.
They do everything to make you leave
I didn’t get laid off, but I’m under so much pressure now that I’m going to have to quit my job. It's certainly never been this bad before. Is it just their tactic to get rid of more people without giving layoffs, I’m not sure, but that’s how it... — read more

Censored?
Is it just me or did I remember seeing a post that had a lot of threads about Jason Kennedy and the Alberta government? Was the post removed? Ahhhh free speech as long as it’s not offensive. Got to love it.
KXL Canceled
Buckle up, it’s about to get real.
How much have are we losing because of nepotism?
The reality is that there are people who currently work here, do not have the required skill (s). The “It’s not what you know it’s who you know” process is affecting the overall performance of the company. HR hiring processes are very poor. Hiring... — read more
What is really going on out there?
I've heard scuttle of some layoffs in a few business units but nothing to the mass layoffs that these threads speak of. No movement of office closures. Some talk of keeping FT headcount down, re-orgs forcing those remaining to wear more hats, and... — read more
Waiting is the worst
I’m worried about the upcoming reorgs as I’m pretty certain majority of us are. Sadly, I have a feeling many are not going to be ready for it. To make it worse, I have a nauseating pit in my stomach because I know the wait is going to be painful. I... — read more

Get ready for some "re-organization" aka layoffs announced today at the town hall. Already confirmed, the only people left standing will be the "preservation team" aka friends of management.
Christmas layoffs?
Anyone thinks TC can be cruel enough as to continue this 'realignment' into the holiday season? From what I've heard, what's going on right now is just the start. Who knows how long they'll drag it out. I really hope they have it all done before... — read more
Realignment in Progress
A realignment announcement this afternoon, changes already being made. Cancellation of meetings already happening. It’s interesting to see it unfold, it’s part of the process, they just need to tell individuals rather than prolonging it. — read more
Reorganization
Attended a meeting with executive management. The list of names is being conducted by HR. In the next 3 to 4 weeks, the purge will begin and completed by December.
Russ Girling’s promise leaves with him
Right as he announced his retirement, the ELT goes back on his word for no personnel cuts in 2020, in the midst of a pandemic. Breaking this promise will tarnish the company’s image for years to come. The pseudo pay-cuts from taking away days off are... — read more
I was laid off from TCPL back in Dec 2015
One of the best companies and the managers that I have worked for (after working in major oil sands companies and international engineering companies). I belong to a minority group and up until that day, I have never faced any adversities in Canada. ... — read more
This might be a large reorganization
I heard the layoffs are not all related to Keystone XL and may be company wide. Might be a large reorganization. There is a reason they asked everyone to start working from the office in September. HR can't deliver the paperwork when your let go of... — read more
Layoffs coming early next week
Email sent out today to Canada Gas.
TC Energy hiring process
I work at TC and every time I see people that join TC I wonder: how that happens.... with those skills they are bringing on board.... or correct me to say: with no required skills. If HR reads this blog, please pay attention that bringing someone... — read more
No major job redundancies in 2020/2021
We won’t see many jobs declared redundant in 200/2021. The Canadian government is expected to invest substantially into the energy sector in Alberta. As everyone knows Alberta is the engine that drives Canada. A strong Alberta leads to a strong... — read more

Lawyer Recommendations for a Larger Package?
If anyone has had success in negotiating a larger package, please provide your recommendations!
Q: can you get a job in Calgary if you are NOT recommended by a current employee? A: NOOOO
Sad ...but true...you cannot get a job unless you know "someone" ...and if you do, they ask you to "modify" the CV to match the job description...so you get the job... That is how we ended up hiring people with a background in health, others with a... — read more
TransCanada at Calgary being "white"washed.
Most of the recent individual layoffs target minorities, immigrants, and people who have no political affiliations called "networking".

I was fired 12-20-16 from CPG/Transcanada after 10 yrs, 7 months. I was a Senior Gas Controller and it was a hectic day on the PA system.
While working with problems going on in another station, a station alert came up in another area and it is said I acknowledged it but didn't react until 4 hours later. This happened on a Sunday afternoon and I was asked to come up on Tuesday, my... — read more
