Brooklyn SolarWorks Reviews

There’s an immaturity that runs through leadership that seeps into the overall culture. It doesn’t take long to figure out who’s protected and who isn’t. At a company wide meeting, someone submitted an anonymous question asking what could be done to address microaggressions toward minorities and better educate staff. The CEO laughed and said he didn’t even know what a microaggression was, then suggested that if it’s “micro” maybe it isn’t really a problem. Outside sales has a terrible retention rate. In just a few years I watched entire casts of people cycle through my same small team. If you walk into the office today you’ll notice the team is largely made up of the same type of people. Draw your own conclusions. A team member was dealing with a family emergency for months and management at multiple levels would regularly make slick comments about her situation the entire time. This employee was a minority going through a family emergency. What that says about how certain people are valued here is deeply troubling. At the end of year party in Q4 2025, leadership bragged that BSW had its best quarter ever, broke records, and that we’d be receiving the largest bonuses in company history. For context, that bonus landed between $5,000 and $6,000 before tax. Before Q1 2026 ended, they laid off somewhere between a quarter and a third of the team. One moment the CEO treated the whole company to a night on a boat, food and drinks fully covered (they treated us every now and then with things like this which is nice). But days later rumors were already circulating again that the company was in financial trouble. That chronic cycle of being rewarded one moment and fearing for your job the next is genuinely exhausting to live through. The company laid off around 30 people as the solar market contracted. People were called downstairs one by one to be told it was their last day. The COO was nowhere to be found the entire day. Cold doesn’t begin to cover it.
