Personality
Mr. Waternoose is a friendly, intelligent, caring, sophisticated monster and has a gentle, fatherly facade, especially with Sulley.

Afterwards in the first film, he is only driven to villainy and greed out of extreme stress, frustration, and desperation to keep Monsters, Inc. afloat in the midst of the energy crisis. Waternoose becomes more villainous as this drive and desperation strips away his morals and he is determined to not let anything stop what he thinks will be the best way for the company to keep going, never taking into account looking for other energy resources.

As well, he reveals that he is actually Randall's partner-in-crime as he regrets banishing Mavis, Sulley, Hank, Pedro, Wendy, and Mike, telling Randall that because of him, he was forced to carry his dirty work for him (as well as stating that Sulley is "twice the scarer Randall will ever be").
