Pros

They have a recruiter that does a good job getting you to think it’s the best job in the world.

Cons

Pay is based off of commission only. Make empty promises to get you to stay. There is no base pay ever. No salary ever. No benefits. 1099 employee so you pay all your own stuff and the company covers nothing. Door to door is awful because no one wants solar. Over saturated market so your competing with 20 other companies. People don’t want solar right now. Knock at least 800 doors before someone is interested. Get yelled at over and over and get chased from neighborhoods. Angry people and they don’t like door knockers. Probably the worst job I have ever worked to be honest. Made about almost nothing in 4 months of working there. I only stayed because I believed them when they said it would get better. It never did.

The solar industry is booming right now, which is evidenced by the fact we have 5 offices across the country and are adding 2 more within the next month. Furthermore, what separates Elite from its competition is that it is a family-run company that values relationships with both its clients and employees. We also take great pride in participating in charity events on a regular basis that allows us to give back to our local communities. Another exciting addition to Elite Solar Concepts is the new Call Center that generates leads and sets appointments for our Consultants!

Pros

Training - Training at Elite is top notch. I had no previous experience in the solar industry or sales. The training program has allowed me to develop rapidly into a well seasoned salesman and leader. Management - Management spends a lot of time with their office. Everyone is very approachable and they take deep gratification in watching their guys/girls hit their goals. Culture - Most positive environment/office I have ever been apart of. Not much else to say here. Teamwork - Elite is not cutthroat. We all work with each other and push each other to get better daily. Growth - Elite is huge on promoting from within. It is not abnormal to be promoted from an entry level position to management within a year. The company is also growing rapidly which makes it really exciting to be apart of

Cons

Driving - You will rack up some miles on your car
