Pros

Used to be a great company to work for. Steady 40 hour weeks.

Cons

Stressful, not rewarding, no matter what you do it's never good enough. No positive reinforcement they only point out the negative. The bonus is a joke and constantly changing and has nothing to do with how hard you work but how well the company is doing. Software is constantly down, errors always occurring, customers canceling and redundant meetings that you're forced to go to even though this takes time away from working towards your goals and lowers your pay. They never give you a raise not even for cost of living. There is no room for advancement because it has nothing to do with how hard you work only favortism. Supervisors and management have no leadership skills, are underqualified and disorganized.

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.
