Pros

Nice office in Manhattan, hybrid work

Cons

- Inexperienced leadership - poor management skills - No strategy for sales just "go make 50 cold calls" every day - Revolving door of sales people- leaders and reps - whether on their own accord or being fired - Very tough sale... limited geographically... not much product market fit - Poor culture - teams are siloed and don't connect

Pros

You get to work on hugely impactful problems of decarbonization and affordability in energy. The team is driven, collaborative, and sharp. There is lots of flexibility in how the team works and very little micro-management. There is a clear product-market fit and pathway to success for the business.

Cons

Typical startup growing pains - decent amount of turnover and lack of institutional support that a larger company would have.
