Pros

Work from 6-2 get off early. Used to be a great place to work. Clean warehouse and supplies available. Team is strong and works hard at job site.

Cons

Manager is weak and doesn't stick up for employees. Let's some folks be lazy. Let's office staff sit back and talk all day very frustrating to see some people get paid to do nothing. Many of them are sitting at a desk watching youtube and videos. They also text a lot on their phones. Meanwhile we are out there busting our butts in all degree weather. Horrible work environment.

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.
