AA should resign, new lawsuit filed about safety problems. It's unfair to the recently terminated employees that where working hard to improve safety.

Why do I have to retire so soon?

Fred P gets to takes years of doing nothing before he stops getting paid. And not so sure what John S is doing either ... don't see much getting done there either? How can we have project excellence, if we don't have projects?

CNBC

Great interview with Alan Armstrong toady on CNBC. Promoting the Marcellus/Utica Shale Assets. Unfortunately a lot of the ones that did the heavy lifting and cleaned up the mess, got terminated. As they say life isn't fair.

Job Listings

At last count, ETE has 181 jobs posted. WMB has 18. Not sure what ETE is planning for layoffs, but its obvious that more are coming to WMB/WPZ. How long until its business as usual in Tulsa? I was somewhat (pleasantly) amazed that there were no OE or... — read more 

Accountability

Noticed a few fired employees have all ready landed high level jobs at various midstream companies expect much more of this, costly for wiiiams.

July/August Layoffs

Has anyone actually heard anything about the next round of layoffs? I'm sure there is another round coming but was wondering if anyone has heard anything about it. Not speculation something viable.

Cnbc

Talking about the surplus of managers and bosses, this morning, on average could be cut in half and the average company would be better. Get angry about a bloated management. Reminds me of Williams, exactly.

Exactly

Me too, not surprised either, in fact was expecting it. If doesn't got easier, college costs and medical expenses are soaring, while wages and jobs are disappearing, unless you want to work taking care of elderly folks. No wonder everyone is so... — read more

Good luck

To all layed off Williams employees: it's a tough break. The way the layoffs were handled was one thing, giving hope of another check that may or may not have come was just cruel. I wish you all the best of luck, it is rough out there but don't give... — read more 

Summary

Glad to see these directors resign. They are just hedge fund managers, don't know squat about running a natural gas business. They are cry babies -and bought the stock high and now are bag holders. It doesn't even matter that much, because they own a... — read more

Watch and Learn

Williams will not recover a penny from ETE. In fact, nothing will change except the price of oil and natural gas which are both heading higher. Anybody that surrives will be a big winner and they will surely take credit for it. End of story!

This company is a mess. Alan must go.

Don't see how Alan and his cronies survive this debacle. Williams leadership needs a shakeup. Recent cuts were just protecting friends and family, so much junk still remains. This company needs new leadership and a full re-org. WMB has lots of good... — read more
