	CorpWatch : Williams Companies: Enron II
		However, the aggrieved Williams' shareholders claim the company "consistently and adamantly contended that [Williams Communications] was not being adversely affected by any over-capacity or over-supply conditions."

		Williams' employees began to feel the pinch when Communications President and Chief Executive Officer Howard Janzen announced last June that 500 job cuts were "necessary as the company re-evaluated its costs." A spokesperson for the Northern Oklahoma AFL-CIO said the lay-offs were having a "devastating effect" on the Tulsa economy.
		Williams' optimistic statements in the face of certain financial losses could have come from the playbook of former Enron Chairman Ken Lay, who was told similar tales to his investors and employees about his own company.
