Pros

This is a great company to work for. I left a very nice 7 year job that was paying me $70k because I wanted a personally fulfilling job that would fulfill my environmental passion every day while allowing me to make good money. SolarCity takes care of its employees. We get great benefits, a 401k, perks, and my teammates are some of the best professionals in the solar industry! I cannot say enough about working for SolarCity. Have you heard of Tesla? Look it up! Let me know if you have any questions.

Cons

The haters! Don't hate! We are the best, so of course, there are competitors, but we all have the same dream at heart. Everyone who qualifies to go solar, needs to go solar. It's not a question of whether or not they will go solar, it's a question of when.

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.
