We move alot of people around Enron. In fact, on an annual basis, we make
about 8400 moves (out of a Houston employee base of 11000). We have found at
Enron that putting people next to eachother makes things happen: increased
productivity and communication. Given our tight office situation in Houston,
moving people around to make room for new and expanding businesses has caused
some disruption. We try to keep it to a minimum and expect it to improve
later this year when we begin occupying the new building.

Subject: Question for All-Employee Meeting

Steve:

The following question has been submitted for the upcoming all-employee
meeting. Could you provide an answer by noon this Friday?

Thanks.

Has Enron looked at the financial expense as well as the emotional, morale
and business expenses associated with constantly moving people from one
location to another in the Enron building? Maybe we could use these savings
and redirect them for our bonuses?
