Employment and forms of energy production Upon initiation in 1998, it has grown to employ more than 13,800 people who served in excess of 25 million consumers in 2009 alone. The company’s presence is evident in Fortune 500, which ranks the top 500 companies and corporations in the country. The strengths that define Sempra Energy entail employing competent workers in all levels of energy production. The employees possess all the equipments they need; furthermore, their working environment is pleasant (Ashby, Miles & Heidrick et al., 2002). Sempra Energy also treats the workers well and gives them better compensation than many other competitors give.

This is before the ‘marketplace is swamped with other companies’ products’ (Plunkett & Plunkett, 2008) Longevity strategies The trend in the recent past is that there is preference for products, which are responsive to the surroundings.
