Pros

Awesome people to work with.

Cons

SolarCity doesn't honor holidays for all employees. if you dare take a day off of work, you come back to so many emails that all you can do on your day back is get to email and not your actual work. SolarCity claims to give stock options instead of matching 401k. I haven't received stock in the past 2 years although I've been promoted 3 times. I don't know why everyone just puts up with it. Together we can find a better way. Let's get back to a reasonable amount of work, time with family, actual days off, and helping each other.

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.
