SolarCity reviews

This is a churn and burn sales company. They bleed you for all you can give them and then put you on a performance improvement plan when your numbers slip. And everyone's numbers slip because permits take 3 to 5 months and some ahj's end Solar and stop allowing it out of the blue. So you get knocked down. It wouldn't be so bad, but we don't get paid until install. So you can spend 60 hours a week working and have a pathetic commission check if the area you have been working suddenly has a permit freeze. And you are expected to stay cheery and positive. The only cheery positive people are the new hires because they don't yet know what there in for. Management (directors and VPs) need to get over themselves and get real. Why would we continue to keep busting our buts for no money.

Practically a High school environment. The recruiting team did an amazing job of over exaggerating the pay. Along with hiring some of the shadiest, and poorly educated folks off the street. Expect homogenized pay. Low salary, plus he lowest commission structure in the industry compared to competing companies. Old boy club/ clique drama. Envision a modern day boiler room/wolf of wall street. Jam packed with painkiller addicts, snitches too as a matter of fact. Coke and adderal junkies. Even a fist fight at the local bar. Sure, the small gestures of fun events gently numb the vicious metric requirements. Lack of customer and employee experience. Lack of critically thinking sales reps, that make the right suggestions for customers. Saddening to look back at fellow friends still stuck there.
