I was called in by an HRBP as a witness per a complaint by a female co-worker against a male co-worker. Said exactly what I witnessed and nothing more. Unsure what happened after that on the complaint. I was treated much differently by my manager... — read more
If you want change, go somewhere else for a career
Changes always come from the top down, no matter if they are good, bad, or stolen. And most of those ideas come from the "Big Boy" Investors/Investment groups. The Board of Directors is nothing but a collection of mouths that gather once a month to... — read more
Where are we headed?
Ok who do I have to bribe to get management to set a clear direction for this company? How many changes have been made so far that meant nothing in the end? It seems as if they are making changes just for the sake of doing it and not actually to... — read more
No professionalism
Williams is a large company with an overwhelming amount of good ole’ boy attitude. There is a distinct void of professionalism. Salary increases and promotions are made based on who you know, and how close relationships are to one another. The hard... — read more
Stock Performance Since Layoffs
If the stock performance is any indication of the success of the layoffs of 2016, it looks like the decision was faulty and a failure. The price during early April, 2006 was about 30 and today it is 28, a negative correlation. Not a surprise to me at... — read more

Anybody?
Rehiring?
Has anybody from the 2016 terminations been rehired recently?

Stick to work, not politics
The CIO appears to have excellent IT skills, but unfortunately allows himself to be surrounded by those making political recommendations. He needs to dig deeper into this. If you challenge someone to do their job, they run to HR and you now have a... — read more

How many women have been terminated or demoted?
There are lots of comments about age and race regarding the OKC closure. What about gender? The energy industry is a male dominated field but how does Williams compare to their corporate peers regarding gender?
OKC office
If/when is the OKC office closing? Are all OKC employees laid off or can they move to Tulsa?
One year later
AA singing a completely different tune from last year. Saying how great the buisness is today, but in 2016 when they axed 700 employees they did not say that all, not right and very unfair.
Good luck re-applying
Don't think Williams would ever hire a layoff employee, that company doesn't have decency to do the right thing.
FAKE NEWS
Some of the best results where produced by Williams, not Access in the Northeast, and many of those responsible for it where terminated last year. Not right.
