Pros

Salary and Benefits are at industry standards.

Cons

Ameresco management that I dealt with in the South and at Corporate were misleading and dishonest to the Sales Team. They do not want to pay commissions on large sales. The written policy means NOTHING when its time to pay out large commissions. Despite what they tell sales peopl when recruiting them they offer very little sales support after you are hired and then hold sales reps responsible for the duties that should be performed by support personnel. There is an unusually high rate of turnover in most areas other than in New England where the company is based. Recently ( 2015-2016) MOST of the sales team in the Mid-West and South left the company. No loyalty at all from Management regardless of performance.

Great Company Morals. Little Compensation for Hard Work

Pros

This a great company to work for given the proper selection of who is hired so to make sure we are all a good fit to the company. The work environment feels safe and welcoming. The ability to use flex time is a great bonus that I have been very grateful for.

Cons

The work load is overwhelming and the ability to keep deadlines almost seems impossible when working on different projects and trying to keep up with the personal work goals that are setup with you boss seems nearly impossible to even try to keep up with. The bonus compensation is nigh. Don't expect any bonuses for your hard work.
