Pros

Amazing working environment filled with friendly, supportive, and intelligent people. #1team1dream

Cons

On the 3rd floor of HQ, if you don't get to the M&M's before 9:30AM, you're guaranteed an M&M-less day.

Pros

When you work for Solar City, you are helping to change the world for the better.

Cons

The different field departments do not communicate well. Each department seems to think their jobs is the hardest/toughest & that other departments have it easy. In fact, every department & the work they do is important & no department has it "easy".

Pros

The folks who tolerate each others shortcomings and do not feel the need to converse ( gossip ) about them. You can learn enough to be personally successful .

Cons

A challenge is created when your company becomes soo successful that you need people in several locations all competing with different environments. Long distance management must retain a feeling of kindness and long term loyalty.
