Pros

The pay is excellent; I get a base salary, commissions, and a bonus for referring new employees. The opportunity is excellent; there is no limit to your professional growth. There are new positions opening constantly. I know my work is making the world a better place.

Cons

There's a pretty steep learning curve, and the pace is extremely fast. These things aren't really cons. They ensure you're working with the best and the brightest.

You're able lot of experience in solar very quickly

Cons

Employees aren't happy with wages and you don't get a raise until you break your back. Mainly focused on getting jobs done quickly rather than quality and safety.
