Company sacrificing employee development for scalability

Pros

- Great people: I have made life-long friends here. There is true camaraderie in the Sunrun family. - Sunrun is undergoing tremendous growth and faces a lot of good problems to tackle. The company has great investor relations and uninterrupted project finance

Cons

-Inconsistent and confused focus on employee development. Only the "chosen ones" are given opportunities to develop according to the company's plans. - Not a place for self-starters and pioneers: If you want to carve your own path and pursue your passions, this is not the place for you. Sunrun hires for function, not talent development. There is a lot of untapped raw talent at this company and few channels to develop. - This is finance company, not a technology company: If you want to work in software or technology, do not work here. Everything is investor oriented i.e. "will X make the investor happy" limiting room for technological innovation and ideation.

Pros

It's work culture, its people, and the company's purpose are in my mind exceptional. This is not a company founded and run by tree-hugging enthusiasts; there is brilliance in the business model (which is explains our success) and a deep sense of drive.

Cons

Developing infrastructure across all departments that can adequately support the business at scale. But then again, I guess this is a good problem to have.
