Yes, it is illegal under California and federal law and would subject you to penalties and possible criminal prosecution.

Yes! An employer is required to publicize to employees that conversations may be monitored. They are also required to properly notify all participants to the call, like customers. Failure to do so could result in criminal charges and civil lawsuits.
