Sempra

they gave me a truck with no tools, i had to borrow tools from my contractors for about 4 months strait wile waiting on approval to get me some tools not just had tools i didn't even have a FLUKE !!!!

they ask ou to set interruption for your contractors, we had 6 smart interrupters......i had 13 to set ! and only 2 of the interrupters even worked.

the position i took i was to manage and fix all not one region but ALL of know ongoing issues with sempras issues I.E. shorts depleted anode beds and so on, but doing this was almost impossible, the old guys at each region did not want anyone looking at their lines and would fight you every step of the way then when you finish your report and submit it they don't do anything i found many shorts to other underground assets that would be easy to clear but nope. we sure talked a lot about them but never did anything to fix them.

because i was in charge of such a large area by large i mean all of sempra utilities i was in a hotel room monday to saturday every week, to do not cover you hotel cost they reimburse you and that can take about 2 months so @ 100 a nigh do the math, then there is fuel you must fill up at a sempra yard.......if that yard closes or is closed you are screwed and will have to pay for your own gas and they WILL NOT REIMBURSE YOU for this period. 

they don't train you or teach you anything about what you need to do for them they just basically said here is a computer and a truck and a list go do some stuff, honestly i think i could have just sat at home and done nothing and they probably would have never known or cared at all.

The pay and benefits are good for the type of work that is done. Most employees are decent and just want do a good job and go home at the end of the day.  However, this company is now a far cry from what it was a decade ago.  Moral has been dropping company wide in many departments and we are suffering due to management and supervision being hired and promoted for what appears to be reasons other than their qualifications or merit.  Corporate greed as it relates to the parent corporation (Sempra), treating us like a cash cow while severely understaffing departments, in order to continue to meet their dividend, stock price, and corporate expansion goals have greatly and negatively affected the rank and file.  But they do a great job marketing a good public image campaign to cover it up.  Still, if your main focus is a decent and steady paycheck and the rest doesn't bother you.  It's better than some other places, even though it's very corporate feeling now (lean six sigma and micromanaging) and doesn't have as much of a utility family vibe anymore.  SoCalGas used to have a very strong feeling of camaraderie and togetherness.  Not so much these days.

Working as an Executive Assistant at this company has been a valuable experience. The role provides a high level of autonomy and trust from leadership, allowing me to manage complex calendars, coordinate travel, support executive communications, and assist with cross-functional initiatives. The culture is generally collaborative and supportive, and teams work well across departments. 

The environment can be fast-paced with shifting priorities, and the role requires strong organization and adaptability. Workload can fluctuate depending on leadership needs or company initiatives, but the position offers meaningful exposure to executive leadership and the opportunity to develop a broad skill set while supporting key business operations. Benefits are competitive and contribute positively to overall employee well-being.

The company currently offers a hybrid schedule with four days in the office and Fridays remote, which provides some flexibility while still maintaining strong in-person collaboration during the week.

Sempra Energy is divided into several different business units so this review only applies to Sempra U.S. Gas & Power as there seems to be a lot of variety between the different business units under the parent company.
 
While Sempra U.S. Gas & Power is under the umbrella of a Fortune 500 company (Sempra Energy), Sempra U.S. Gas & Power feels much more like a growth company giving it a dynamic atmosphere with the constant challenges that new projects usually bring. 

I appreciate the fact that the bulk of the company’s new projects are in clean energy. The company is a "top five in the nation" developer of clean energy. While many people talk about being environmental stewards, this company delivers on that promise. 

I also appreciate that the company feels strongly about diversity in their employee pool as well as the suppliers it does business with.

My job is exciting, interesting and constantly evolving. No problems there. Pay and benefits great. Most employees are career employees. Leadership is the problem. Cannot understand how the supervisors got their role and how they keep it. No guidance and direction but plenty of blaming when you mess up. The reason there was no guidance was because the wrong people are in leadership roles. They know how to pacify the director but have zero people skills. They think saying hello to the employees in the morning makes them "people persons." Takes forever for a decision to be made. They are outsourcing everything like payroll, I.T., and soon to be billing.
