Good state agency, lots of internal politics - SSMI California State Auditor Employee Review

Smart capable people, challenging and rewarding work, flexible telework options, amazing benefits and great starting salary for entry level auditors. Easy parking and a really nice building with a free gym and lots of natural light from large windows.

Office is very quiet now that most people are permanently teleworking, so for people who prefer working on-site, it is pretty empty. Auditors are under a lot of pressure and have to work some overtime.

- Fairly good work life balance - Remote work - No “cliqueness” culture or pressure to socialize - Very smart, professional, and cool colleagues

- Disorganized - Not clear on what I’m supposed to be doing all the time - Experience really depends on your team lead - Work can feel tedious - Feels like there’s a high-pressure, top-down mentality where the goal is to please or avoid being attacked
