Pros

Great company with huge growth potential. Extensive training program.

Cons

Growing too big too fast. Cannot properly keep up with the customers as fast as they come. 3-6 months from sale until install of solar system. Checks don't clear regularly. Too much change too often. They're constantly trying new things and making major changes that often confuse the employees and customers. Management can't even keep up with the changes.

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.
