Pros

Fun highly competitive working environment. Brand new HQ in the Roseville/Sacramento area. No one has a personal office. Everyones separated into groups working with their assigned team. Commission is based on successful number of contracts signed. Also receive commission if I am able to recruit others that would positively benefit the company.

Cons

A lot of distractions. Workers riding scooters to and from places. Workers playing with nerf guns. Playing loud music at a personal desk. If you dont make enough sales they will get rid of you after the first month without a blink of an eye. Not very much instruction on how to do things you need to figure it out from day one.

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.
