Pros

I really believe solar can help save the environment. Gives people a real choice for generating energy. Liked home consults and educating people. I met lots of very nice and interesting people.

Cons

Management would want 7 days a week of appointments. Way too many corporate all hands meetings. Although you are told you can set your own schedule, they jam pack your days with preset appointments that you can't possibly get ton allotted drive time. Commission could be more than 6 month away.

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.
