I was told the cuts focused mostly on legacy administrative and support roles rather than operations. It’s definitely unsettling that leadership isn’t being transparent, but from what I’ve gathered, this seems contained to that specific facility for now. Don’t panic just yet, but keeping your resume ready is never a bad move when the communication is this poor. It feels like they are trimming fat before the next quarter hits, so just keep your head down and focus on your current deliverables.
If you’re seeing 68 people dropped in one go, don’t kid yourself into thinking this is just a 'localized adjustment.' Williams has been tightening the belt across the board to satisfy shareholders, and the silence from internal channels is a classic tactic to prevent a mass exodus of talent before they’re ready. If you’re in a support role or non-essential field office, start looking elsewhere immediately. They’ve done this before, and the pattern rarely stops at one location.
