Williams Companies – “Good place to work but has its faults (like anywhere else I suppose)”

Business Outlook

Pros

Williams pays pretty well and has good benefits (like most oil and gas companies). Laid back, low pressure, low stress operations.

Cons

Good ol' boys network of promotion. Seeming lack of concern by management to promote and give raises to those who work for it. This creates workers who no longer try to go the extra mile because it doesn't matter and is not rewarded. Lack of strong, well-defined training programs.
