      Pros

      Lots of experience in the industry, brand awareness, partner with The Home Depot, have done big name projects and have big name partners.

      Cons

      Growing incredibly fast...right hand doesn't know what the left is doing, sales team has tripled this year and will double again very soon. Not many company generated leads or marketing, push to have sales reps do door-to-door lead generation. Sales managers try to help but have too many people to manage (for a company that is as fluid as this one is).

      SolarCity Lacks Employee Caring

      Anonymous employee

      Pros

      At one point I felt SolarCity was the best company to work for since it was very employee friendly. They do make an impact in the energy industry.

      Cons

      They no longer care about their customers or their employees. The expect salaried employees to work more than 50 hours per week and will not comp their time, they burn out all other employees by having them do more work with less people.
