Pros

Working at NY State Solar has been an incredible experience. The mentorship here is top-notch; everyone—from management to fellow employees and even the owners—genuinely invests in your success. The team feels like a family, and we do a lot of fun activities together, which makes the work environment enjoyable and supportive. Since I joined, I've had the opportunity to go on amazing company trips to destinations like Greece, Colombia, Germany, and the Dominican Republic. We also engage in various activities in between, such as paintball, dinners, and outings. The company is also committed to giving back, organizing events like beach clean-ups and charity car washes. Pay is always reliable and on time, which is a huge plus. While performance expectations are high, they are clearly communicated, and you receive the support you need through regular check-ins and assistance. It’s evident that the company genuinely cares about your growth and success.

Cons

TThere’s not much to criticize here. Like any job, there are good days and bad days. The expectations are high, and there’s little room for failure, but the support you receive is outstanding. The leadership team, including the owners, is deeply involved in ensuring your success. For example, the owner has personally accompanied me on sales appointments, which is something you wouldn't typically experience at most companies.he business

Pros

Okay benefits Great coworkers That’s kinda it. Future looks bleak.

Cons

Constantly disorganized and underpays for the amount of work heaped on each individual due to dwindling staff. Firings happen seemingly at random, other people are quitting due to hostile company culture. Leadership is often lost in the weeds, and customers are unhappy. Rampant nepotism and conflicts of interest. Middle management is incompetent but really good at kissing up to the right people for security. Company cares more about appearances than results. Expectations and responsibilities are inconsistent. Underhandedly discriminatory to certain identities. They insist that we’re growing but our staff is smaller than ever, we lose someone nearly every 2 weeks. There are limited paths to upward mobility unless you were hired in from another solar company or know someone in charge. Most positions are dead-end. They expect you to care about the business as if it is your own without the benefits of being an owner. They will tout one employee’s success story of upward mobility or monetary gain to new hires as if that is the norm… it is not. Hollow gestures of gratitude from senior leadership that do nothing to actually help the people who work for them.
