Pros

Good work life balance, good management, however not always the most supportive. Good training pay. If you’re determined to get into solar, Trinity is most likely the best out of bad industry filled with scammy companies (in RI).

Cons

You will not get paid unless your job installs. Install timeframe is at times 90 days+. Hope you have a hefty savings account because you’re going to need it with this pay plan. From the point of sale to the point of install things are mostly out of your hands and many things can go wrong that cause your job to be canceled. And if that happens, you get NOTHING. Whether you’re at fault or not. The office who handles scheduling and permitting and other logistics is so poorly run that it will cost you money. All good if the entire company/ office can grow from it however there’s no accountability when this happens. In my time there, things would start to turn around and then suddenly get worse. This company claims to care about their own but it’s mostly a facade, if you’re owed commission when you leave they keep it. Enough said.

Pros

There used to be more positive to working here but under the new CEO they have taken everything away from their long standing employees.

Cons

One of the biggest issues is pay. Employees who have been here for years who know the job inside and out are often making the same as (or less than) brand new hires who are just coming in with little to no experience. It’s frustrating and honestly pretty discouraging when your time, effort, and knowledge don’t seem to be valued. It also feels like the teams doing the bulk of the day-to-day work and making sure everything runs smoothly aren’t compensated fairly for the workload they carry. Raises and improvements to benefits are limited, even for those who consistently go above and beyond. At the same time, there’s a clear difference in how departments are treated. Sales teams are rewarded with trips, events, and strong financial incentives, while internal teams, who play a huge role in actually driving success for this company, don’t see the same level of recognition or pay. It creates a pretty big disconnect. What makes it harder is that the company promotes a very positive, upbeat culture, but that doesn’t always match the reality employees experience day to day. Over time, this discourages a lot of employees from wanting to remain here.
