Pros

I feel very passionate about what I do and am so happy I can make a great living doing something I truly believe in. SolarCity is growing like crazy, so if you don't like change, this is the wrong place, but if you are looking for a dynamic industry and workplace, you'll love it here! I work in sales and flexibility is very important to me. As long as I meet my sales numbers, I make my own schedule and can do what I want for the most part.

Cons

SolarCity just went public, so just like any company who does that, there is much more concern for costs, so there has definitely been a real focus on costs which means extra demands on current employees and trimming of fat.

Pros

A fast growing company with lots of room for advancement. They are really interested in making a change, and they're making it happen quicker than anyone else. Worked for several very large companies, and I am impressed with the involvement of the founders and upper mangement.

Cons

The amount of people involved in the installation process, and lack of communication between the different groups to make things happen.
