Pros

SolarCity gives its employees a lot of trust. Work hard and hit your numbers they will support you every step of the way. Your co-workers are your teammates. Easy to reach out to any of them and management for help. You feel good about the products you sell because you are saving the customer money, giving them control over energy costs, and increasing their homes re-sell value. Car, cell-phone, laptop, medical, dental, vision, 401k, stock options, bonuses, BBQ's, vacations, etc.

Cons

Time management is a priority. Because you are given so much trust it is easy to fall behind. Must be self-motivated. You are on salary and always on call. Company is growing really fast and things are always changing.

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.
