      Pros

      I really enjoy my management and coworkers. We're all very supportive to each other and try our best to help each other out when possible. I also love our product and the comprehensive services that we offer.

      Cons

      There should be much more training. The only training that exists is the 2 day virtual training on salesforce and solar basics. Such a big company should offer ongoing training instead of just shadowing.

      Pros

      Can be fun at times, but door to door sales isnt the most stimulating career. Great for the consumer. Work life balance is great, but if you dont work, you dont eat.

      Cons

      No real vision yet. DOOR TO DOOR (D2D) sales isnt the way to go. People dont trust solar yet. It will take probably another generation for people to finally come to. As D2D salesman its tough and we dont get paid that much for one deal that is a 20 yr commitment for the company. Residual would be nice. All young kids are salesmen. Unless you are a manager thats when you get paid the real money. Plus market is saturated with solar with the other companies already knocking on the same doors you are doing last week.
