Okay company, major cutbacks - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso SoCalGas

I have been with SoCalGas for many years. When I came into the company, they actually cared for their employees. Now not so much. It's all about the bottom line. Part of the problem is Sr. Management is heavily influenced by Sempra which is SCG parent company and they set most of the policies. They are working employees now harder than ever, they have taken away so many critical perks, and the salaries are not that competitive. We do have an incentive but every year the senior management puts on a fire drill and employees start the gossip mill that we will not get one. And, since it is not guaranteed, it can happen. However, when people come into the company, they heavily publicize it as a selling point since the salaries again are not competitive. We do have cash balance which is similar to a pension and the benefits are okay. Not the best, but okay. Just know what you are getting into. They are particularly working engineers to death since they are knee deep in a lot of stuff now and not enough overhead. And their priority is maximizing profits for shareholders and not employee wellness and retention. It's deeply troubled me seeing how this company has turned itself from a caring balanced family company into a greedy Corporate bueuracratic sweat shop.
