Pros

I've recently begun working at SolarCity in an analytical role at one of their satellite offices. I had enough resources and training setup for me on the first day to start quickly, which is uncommon for a first day. The workforce there is very intelligent, motivated and has fun as well. Most importantly the values of innovation and environmental stewardship espoused by upper management are real and make their way to every aspect of business.

Cons

It is still very much of a start-up atmosphere even in the HQ, so if you don't work well in changing and fast-paced work this might not be the company for you.

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.
