      Pros

      Great brand name. Many opportunities for advancement. Competitive product offers. High degree of flexibility for work schedule. Cutting edge technology and great value for customers

      Cons

      Back office operations is a mess. This sales job requires a massive amount of operational followup. Disconnect between HQ and sales teams. HQ constantly changes what is available and makes promises that often do not come to fruition.

      Pros

      SolarCity has given me the opportunity to work my way from a 12$/hr grunt to an overpaid engineer capable of making more than my parents. The people who work at this company make the office an experience one that I look forward to being a part of each day. EVERYONE I have worked with is caring, funny, laid back, and always willing to lend a hand.

      Cons

      SolarCity, like most startups and quickly growing companies, hires eager young employees and asks them to work tirelessly to stretch the compensation provided. By this I mean young people work harder and longer and for less. This is the target employee base for this company. In my opinion, this makes for a better workplace though, as I am one of those people who likes to work hard!
