Pros

SolarCity pays a good starting salary. Some jobs have the freedom to come and go as they please.

Cons

If you’re a girl it’s hard to move up in a position that’s not secretarial. In Arizona it’s very male dominated and girls are not taken seriously and it’s very big on the “good old boys club.” Girls are NOT considered for management positions in Arizona. Some of the ROM’s Regional Operations Managers constantly hits on the female employees and there have been drug problems in warehouses. Upper management is aware of this and do nothing about it. Corporate wise they are always changing things and will get a random idea and have to change everything. There is no job security since they will do massive layoffs of a position after they just made up the position and hired for it in the past few years.

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.
