can't believe how this company keeps screwing up! did you know that some of our private HR data in Workday was exposed in sharepoint! can't trust this company anymore!

Judging by the recent accounting job postings it looks like a few people jumped ship after the bonus payout. It's not surprising given the toxic inept leadership in that area.

Good Luck!... read more

I am optimistic that CVE share prices will get back to $20 or higher. With the implementation of strategic cost cutting measures in the deep basin, continued disciplined operations at FCCL, and heck maybe even market access (it’s bound to happen... read more

They had to layoff that giant head out front of the Bow. Enjoy your cubicles.

I always think this time is funny/interesting because so many people mouth off about getting their bonus and getting out. But my take on this is CVE doesn’t really see much of an exodus after bonuses are given out as there still isn’t much employment... read more

Again, here is your HR and mgmt calling names, insulting people, belittling them. Whatever you do don’t try and understand or get to the root cause of employee unhappiness. That might mean taking real action vs covering it over. I appreciate Alex... read more

Oilsands staff had a few people let go.

What do you guys think? A new carrot on the stick? The chance of us hitting $20 is extremely low. It costs CVE nothing to announce this incentive program. Maybe it will help Alex dump his personal investment in CVE?

I have heard a lot of negative comments about the new space. How bad could they really be?

Management can take my office ... but they can never take my Freedom!!! Freedom!!! (In Scottish accent) (First interview if tomorrow across the street .. I’m all fired up now!..)

Vibrating floors, vibrating furnitures, dangerous work environment... people were told to stay home or work remotely. Well done!

(Prerequisite: Not part of CVE management or your typical O&G HR flunkie). I have a funny theory about some of you guys (not all of you) with your criticisms and snide comments levelled towards Drew Z and I don't think I am wrong. A good number of... read more

See what I mean ? When mgmt can avoid doing something dumb to annoy the employees they stop posting. You’ve made it almost two days without going out of your way to get anyone riled up. Try for a week now and it should keep dying down.

Classic CVE mgmt response. Ignore the problem of your top ten award for worst place to work. 400+ reviews are not a few whiners telling you there’s a problem here. What you don’t get is it’s the good people who will leave, not the bottom. That’s why... read more

We just had two people accept other offers even before they got their bonuses. You know it’s bad when they’re so desperate to get another job they leave their bonus behind. And they were both good people.

So is this the future? We build bigger and taller structures like The Bow and Brookfield, only to stuff professional and technical staff into smaller and smaller spaces. I don't understand how management continues to get fleeced and sold on this... read more

Me culture to we culture? Let’s see: you make our company rank in the 10 worst companies to work for you keep your chunky bonuses while cut bonuses for the working population you sit there in your all male podium promoting 10 male VPs into the most... read more

No Alex CNRL did not do across the board 10% wage cuts. It was graduated to income level and their executive took a 20% cut first. And there were no layoffs. Contrast that with CVE where minions took a bonus cut and the executive kept themselves... read more

I think our business whiner I mean newsmaker CEO of the year should have to also sit in one of those sardine cans they are calling collaborative workspaces. Anyway, I’m pretty excited if this means I can literally work from wherever the hell I want... read more

I see the Calgary Herald has named AlPo "Alberta's Business Newsmaker of 2018". What kind of a BS title is that? Should be called top whiner of 2018. I wonder how much CVE paid to get that article in the paper. It appears AlPo loves the media... read more

I see over at the glass door HR is back at posting positive reviews for themselves. Keep it up guys. Why bother trying to fix the problem when you can just hide it inder the covers. Overpaid and useless. It’s a good thing the Herald does a c-ap job... read more

So who thinks there will be another round of layoffs come end of Feb? Not much of a bet as for last 5 years they have had layoffs in Feb and around Oct. but Alex did say no more layoffs, so there shouldn’t be. But then he did more layoffs in Nov... read more

Life at pathetic CVE.. http://www.cbc.ca/player/play/1355893827905/

I’m continuously perplexed on how Cenovus remains so male dominated. I knew some very strong female managers and technical leads at the company that were let go during the rounds layoffs. Is upper management just generally unskilled with maintaining... read more

7 more VPs. Really? This will for sure turn the company around. Alpo, no sh-- the optics don't look good. We'll played, drive moral low enough and attrition will take care of the G&A costs.

Way to go! https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/10-worst-companies-work-2019-according-employees-joshua-fruhlinger/

Probably not a popular thread but that is ok. No affiliation with CVE management. As much as you folks want to rag on our new CEO, the board hired him to make the very difficult decisions that Brian never could. He wasn't brought on to be a nice guy... read more

More and more people leave each week... its like a overloaded dam with a leak... wait for the new year when we are post-bonus with less benefits, days off, and cubicles (except for Alpo and team) Cenovus Investor: Beware

Seems more pompous than factual

The BOE article today he is quoted saying " My company" Oh the humility

Please provide an answer to all these valid questions in these threads. Why the new manager and director positions while layoffs are going on? Why promotions and no bonus reduction for mgrs but yes for rest of staff? Why does Cenovus need two... read more

Didn’t ALPO promise no more layoffs just after the last round? This is extremely hard on your staff, CVE...

Anyone know how many were let go today?

GM can get rid of 25% of their executives why can’t the oil patch get real and finally deal with being so top heavy. Make a real difference in the bottom line.

Everybody keeps saying there will be layoffs but can anybody provide even a rough when? Next month, next year, next decade? Anything?

If you don’t think lay offs are coming you’re not paying attention. The mgmt here will save themselves and sacrifice the rest of us without a moments hesitation. Then who’s ever left gets to hear the same old spewing garbage about the hard decisions... read more
