Pros

Overall, this is a great company to work in. The company provides great benefits, great work/life balance, and a excellent incentive compensation plan.

Cons

In IT, poor performance aren't always dealt with at a timely matter. There's a very few opportunities to move up beyond a Team Lead/Supervisor in IT due to low attrition.

Pros

- Low stress work environment - Great benefits - Flexible schedule (depending on group) - Secure career

Cons

- Tenure is the only way to get recognized; performance rarely considered - Lots of office politics, very difficult to advance in career (unless you have tenure) - Anti-Change ("but we have always done it this way...")

Pros

No company is perfect. This company is the best of the Sempra family of companies, and beats most other companies hands down. Lots of freedom to provide input and make decisions that move projects forward. Leadership places a lot of trust in employees to "do the right thing." Your work is not micromanaged. Company provides lost of training to develop and retain employees.

Cons

Some employees never had a "real career job" before coming to SoCalGas. These employees have no prospective and do not know how fortunate they are to be working for a great company. Some of them complain but they do not know what they are talking about. The work/life balance needs work. Working a lot of hours is routine.
