Pros

The co-workers I have met and started out with made the day somewhat better. Also if you looking to make some quick cash.

Cons

I have looked at many reviews online to get an idea on how I properly wanted to go about writing this because I do have so much to say about my time here so here it goes: - The work life balance was terrible starting at 12:30pm might sound great but getting out late was not ideal at all and they were strict about not allowing us to come in at 9am just to get a head start and leave earlier. - Daily quotas - Management, there are people who only been there for 2 months and they are already captains, ridiculous. - "Team Meetings" were an absolute joke. We literally had a meeting where we listened to music for an hour. Real productive. - Also nepotism was a real problem.So a bit background on myself I worked at Trinity Solar in July to September 2019, I had a hard time with calls because I was a bit nervous so they made me shadow a person who was one of the top sales people there. She literally skipped over parts of the script and no one said a word to her. I followed her lead and did the same thing she did and for some reason I got in trouble but not her. Seriously how pathetic, - The sales representatives were the worse they are rude and unprofessionals and downright bullies. - Also biggest pet peeve about this place is that they try to act like its anything but telemarketing, they try to make it like people are just dying to get solar when 95% of the people we're making appointments with don't even want the appointment, they are just doing it to the get the salesperson off their lawn. I believe in solar but being a private company is just poor way of doing it, go public, commercialize solar that's how you'll get real customers not these fake appointments people make and then cancel an hour later. - One more thing I see reviews from this place and they can say its not true all they want but its so clear that half of these reviews are fake.

Pros

They used to have good employees (they all quit however) Leadership is quite dumb so it's easy to manipulate your way into positions

Cons

Let's start with business ethics. In B2B relationships Trinity has acted highly unprofessional. On multiple occasions they refuse to pay other companies for their work. Instead, they wait until there is a lawsuit. Once the lawsuit begins, they'll often then settle on paying a lower amount then originally agreed upon. This is Trinity 101 how to handle other companies. They'll also do things like sharing email accounts to avoid paying for more subscriptions services even after being directly told that it's against their agreement with the other company. If you're a company doing any form of business with Trinity, they will find a way to exploit your services/product. BT Dev team. Recently, they hired a CIO to take over technology. Upon being hired, this person belittled every person in the department and then hired family members and friends into high ranking positions. These friends and family members are extremely unqualified. This has lead to a high turnover rate. Multiple new hires only worked for a few weeks before walking out of the office and quitting. Do not fall for any propaganda the BT Dev feeds you during an interview. Working at this company will be miserable and unproductive.

Tough job, no transparency

Pros

Many nice and inspirational people, pays well if you work in excess of 40 hours. Company events now and again are nice for employees.

Cons

There wasn't transparency from my manager about pay at the time of my interview or since. Commission structure has changed since I've worked there but no official policies have been released. I'm still unclear about how I get paid. Sales people have no assistance with lead generation until they meet an exorbitant number of installations that only a small group of people actually achieve. Managers are expected to continue selling and are not able to focus on managing and helping their teams. There is a ton of turnover in sales.
