Pros

It’s the Wild West. You can literally do whatever you can get away with.

Cons

Where to start…. Since 10/21 there have been 60+ people laid off, maybe a dozen that quit out of principle right after, the CFO quit in the middle of the workday, at least 1 VP quit overnight, people in all 3 branches are either quitting or getting fired and are not getting replaced, and the people that have no choice but to stay are left to handle jobs of many people. The CFO, her 2nd in command, and the 2nd’s backup all quit, leaving the accounting department bare and with either vacancies or brand new people there. There is zero organization throughout the ENTIRE company. No accountability for tools, materials, trucks, heavy equipment, etc. Customers are consistently lied to. They are sold a product and hear almost nothing from Moxie afterwards. The lucky ones get installed and have to hope that the electricians come install or that inspections get scheduled. Normally, the only ones that get that far are the ones that threaten lawsuits after months of no contact from project managers. The PM’s went from 8 to 2+ the owners wife. They just don’t have the manpower to keep up with the workload. This company explosively expanded into 27 States and thought that paying contractors to work there (multiple different ones in each state), was going to be profitable. The 3 permanent branches held up the rest of the unprofitable states. The longer that time went on, the less bills they paid. There have been at least a dozen smaller contractors this company alone has driven out of business. They have inoperable vehicles in multiple auto shops that they can’t pay for and will likely write off as a loss at the mechanic shop’s expense. There are NO suppliers that will work with Moxie in a credit basis. The worst of it all is that there are 300+ customers that bought a solar panel system with a battery that panels are installed, have PTO, and might have to wait up to 6 years (if the current plan to make things right goes through without a hitch) to get their batteries installed. These are not local installs, most are in the contractor states where the installers either will not or cannot work for Moxie because Moxie has not paid them. This company blew up and got so big because the owner hired competent people who made his insane ideas work as much as they could. They do residential solar, commercial solar, electric vehicle sales, and solar panel manufacturing. All those competent people have been laid off or quit. This company is now imploding under their own weight.

Pros

Exciting company with fun people

Cons

Financially unstable. Reduced sales force unexpectedly despite exceeding sales targets. Uncertain if commissions will be paid out for contracts generated, which is close to theft.

Pros

Flexibility. They only make you work when you want to.

Cons

I was given a single day of classroom training and then sent out to book appointments at an event by myself. Then I was sent to book appointments in a low income neighborhood because the manager couldn't be bothered to spend two seconds checking out the area beforehand. I was also not reimbursed for mileage from the event even though it was promised to me and I drove over 300 miles total.
