      Pros

      Good training. Co-workers are really nice.

      Cons

      Sales expectations are unrealistic. They have a new standard now where 99% of people will not reach. If you do not meet your quota, you get terminated. It looks as if Solar City is now only going for cream of the crop super salespersons. The other con is that SRP charges fees that are so high now that Solar City cannot do proposals in Arizona. That's approximately 40% Market share.

      Pros

      Great guys, good work environment, overall a cool company.

      Cons

      Pay. Last December they gave the installers a SIGNIFICANT pay cut that has hurt our pay checks, made some guys quit and overall decreased morale all over the place.

      Pros

      Good medical benefits, stock options and 401 K plan. Company car, lap top, printer, cell phone allowance- overall great perks.

      Cons

      I worked almost every evening and weekend. It is not an ideal work schedule for someone who values family time.
