Pros

Company focuses on building good moral among employees. Pension and company matching contributions to 401k. Good benefits.

Cons

Vice Presidents and CEO are really adamant about everyone coming back to the office even though it actually hurts productivity in most positions and doesn’t provide tangible benefits. They add more in office days with short notice and currently it sits at a minimum of 3 days or more depending on the position. A lot of areas are short staffed so the additional workload has made maintaining a good work life balance increasingly difficult without the flexibility of working remote. Hard work is also usually rewarded with more responsibility and work without any increase in pay or flexibility.

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.
