Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of job freedom without direct supervision on a daily basis. Good benefits and pay but lousy perks for Manager and above positions. Great job security. Interesting work for the most part. Huge geographical area of Operations you can work just about anywhere in the USA if they have openings.

Cons

Managers, Directors and Vice Presidents are mostly lackluster for a company of this size. Lousy performance review system and pay metrics associated with it. Williams isn't understaffed but have a lot of dead weight around. It is almost impossible to get fired there and everyone knows that and use it to their advantage often.
