Our Company
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), a subsidiary of PG&E Corporation (NYSE:PCG), is one of the largest combined natural gas and electric companies in the United States. Based in San Francisco, our 24,000 employees deliver safe, reliable, affordable and clean energy to nearly 16 million people throughout our Northern and Central California service area, stretching from Eureka to Bakersfield and from the Pacific Ocean to the Sierra Nevada.
More than anything else, we are driven by our responsibility for public and workforce safety—including the recognition that every single PG&E employee is a public safety leader.
At the same time, PG&E is at the forefront of changes in the utility industry to support the transition to a cleaner energy economy. We’re ranked among the nation’s cleanest utilities and are active in shaping clean energy policies at the state and national levels. A key part of our mission is to address the challenges of climate change on behalf of the communities we’re privileged to serve.
Evidence of our mission is visible in our Community Wildfire Safety Program, created in 2018 in response to a series of extreme weather events driven by climate change. This program, which includes precautionary measures in response to 2017 and 2018 wildfires that will help further reduce wildfire threats and strengthen our communities for the future, is continually being evaluated and adjusted to meet the changing needs of California.
Due to potential liabilities stemming from the 2017 and 2018 wildfires, both the corporation and the utility filed for Chapter 11 reorganization on January 29, 2019. We believe this was in the best interests of our customers and all of our stakeholders, including those who were impacted by the fires. More than ever, PG&E is in a process of rebuilding – the way we work, our infrastructure, our internal structures as well as our affected communities.
With all this change, we are poised for reinvention and innovation. To get there, we need top talent at all levels to bring fresh thinking to the meaningful work at hand. If you’re ready to make a real difference, and have an appetite for disrupting the status quo, there’s never been a better time to help us build a better California.
