Pros

this is why you see so very many reviews from 10/13 -10/15....way more than in any other date range of reviews these reviews are untrue...they are stacking the deck..

Cons

horrible place to work...low pay for all of your waking hours...and they toss you out like used Kleenex. their actions are the opposite of what they preach.....typical of any organization that is based on taking advantage of their employees...they brainwash them ....until they wash out of the business....then hire more to replace them....over 1000 sales new hires in last year in So California...per an email as to the wonderful perfomance of a hiring manager. There are not 1000 sales people in So Cal. now...probably a bout 300 or so...what happened to all the others? Who has the busiest job in SolarCity? clearly it is HR.

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.
