Pros

I really believe solar can help save the environment. Gives people a real choice for generating energy. Liked home consults and educating people. I met lots of very nice and interesting people.

Cons

Management would want 7 days a week of appointments. Way too many corporate all hands meetings. Although you are told you can set your own schedule, they jam pack your days with preset appointments that you can't possibly get ton allotted drive time. Commission could be more than 6 month away.

Pros

Excellent vision and a product that is needed. Leadership prior to Hayes was involved and the culture was good.

Cons

Churn and burn environment More concerned with numbers than producing satisfied customers Turned into a pyramid scam with employees being pushed to bring in recruits Not a long term career environment
