Pros

Full time with benefits and 401k

Cons

I was a former SolarCity employee for over 3 Years as an FES. I watched as SolarCity Continued to fire every month over 60% of its salesforce which created individulally over 200,000 dollars in revenue a month while an abundance of managers that did absoulutely nothing but just walked into Home Depots and spied on their employees.As the company every year diminished the FEC and FEC compensation to Next to nothing,You sir have reaped the benefits of Money! You are a South African with no reguard for The American dream which is to prosper and make a simple living,You sir are a corporate Greedist! with no care for your employees,To pay people 30K for what they provided is a JOKE! I wish you would understand that people only get Solar to SAVE money The American people could care less about Climate Change! Sincerely, An American!

Pros

Just to quantify my review a bit, I am within the top 10% of inside sales reps within our 12,000 person company. It is a great place to work and people doing well ARE able to make good money here. The executive team ALWAYS has a platform for reps to help make SolarCity a better place every quarter. They involve the top 20 reps each quarter in various ways to help their peers through an interactive group called Team Elite. Executives, VP's, Directors, and Managers are always willing to help and go to bat when there are issues with things that need to be fixed. The direction of the company is consistent and although the company is large, decision makers work as hard as possible to steer the big ship quickly when necessary.

Cons

Knee jerk reactions with decision making at a director level create issues from time to time. Culture has had its ups and downs due to HUGE growth last year and subsequent high attrition rates.
