Pros

They try, they really do try to be an excellent company -all the groundwork for excellence is at play and they offer a good pension plan.

Cons

They ultimately fail at being excellent or even at being "C+ good". There is a corporate culture of entitlement: watch your back; mommy I'll get the belt &/or it's my turn and who cares if I am not the best. There is intense finger pointing. Key point of note: if one is good at what one does -watch out you will feel the envy of others and you will be thrown under the bus -the prior mentioned is spoken of openly through out entire the company.

Pros

Very DEI focused, so would be good if you are a minority or female candidate interested in STEM fields.

Cons

Currently going through layoffs due to shortfalls in budgeting allowed by the state. California has planned for decarbonization of the state, mid to long range outlook not promising. Currently requires 4 days in the office.
