Sure why not have layoffs for williams when they moved to MEXICO buy an engine made in mexico and pay big money for it made in mexico. I hope williams international is gone.We dont need them in Utah anymore BYE.Go to Mexico and never come back. Greg Williams is the son of the late SAM williams and he will surely run the company in the ground a long with cal scuak nate ellis redmond and the whole gang of liers.

They aren't liers. They are just too dumb to run a aerospace company. The company used to have a good management until the might Walled Lakers moved out from Michigan. Stupidest employees that I have ever seen. They need to go back to work for Ford & GMC.

I contracted for W.I.(Walled Lake facility). What was once a top notch company has been degraded by foolish management choices and a culture of harassment.
I worked with a quality person who spent the majority of his day placing fantasy football bets and looking at porn. He was an absolute disgrace and co-workers and management were well aware of his activities but did nothing about it.
I also observed some pretty intese confrontations and violence between workers in the sheet metal cell but once again management chose to do nothing.
I, personally, wouldn't participate in the pornography distribution and time wasting on non-company matters and was thus complained about by the quality guy who got worried about sexual harassment charges. What a tool...
My contract wasn't renewed. No explanation given by management but I found out from inside sources what happened. Guess working hard and trying to stay professional is not a desirable attribute for a Williams International employee.

Of course this would include many at Walled Lake as well like Dan Jones, Henry Jalbert, Bob Scherba, Jay Hayley and Gregg himself. And you are right about one thing, that these people will run this once great company into the ground, they have been spiraling downward after Alex Craig, Eclipse and other extremely stupid moments in history. My guess is Dr. Williams in turning in his grave seeing what his son and others are doing to his creation!

There are so many left at WI they are afraid to do anything, speak, be vocal... it has gone from one of the coolest places to work to becoming one of the cruelest places to work, Ogden or Walled Lake!

Some people believe that they can lie their way into a job and then try to learn once they come on board. Well unfortunately this plan didn't work for you and you had to try and resort to your ignorant lies, and they didn't work either. If a person is as good at what they say they are then they shouldn't have to go around and tell everyone, after all actions speak louder than words. Second of all don't flatter yourself with the Sexual Harassment threat, management seen right through it...along with everyone else!!! I couldn't imagine saying anything even remotely close to any type of flirtation to you. It would be like a normal man hitting on a Oompa Loompa!!!

So my guess is that you have not worked in the field and probably never will. You are better suited for staying home while on various social media outlets telling everyone just how good you really are.

Some people acquire information and learn... Once upon a time Williams International created the Williams Aerial Systems Platform known as the WASP also known as the Individual Lift Device (ILD) please see "top Secret" flying soldiers amazon, due to the Pilots providing the technical Manuals and video, "we" are building four 2012 WASP Project . Watch the Youtube video. I have fifty three people with Asperger syndrome assigned to this task, that translates to 22,500 plus IQ points... there is absolutely nothing this group of people can not design or build, Imagine thinking about nothing else other than the assigned task over the course of years and years now add solid works to the mix... Do you understand? We are the retarded people you made fun of. KARMA is interesting to watch.

If you're already involved in a relationship, either you or your partner will want to make it more exciting and spontaneous. Is this a suggestion that will go down well?
