Pros

Trinity Solar has great base salary with added commission. Very positive work environment. The company only promotes from within, I was promoted out of the entry level after being here for 5 months. This only happens for hard working individuals who are willing to show up every day and put in 100% effort.

Cons

Working in the elements if poorly prepared, extremely competitive environment. There is an adjustment period for the first 2 to 4 weeks.

Pros

Flexible schedules. As long as you're hitting minimum standards, no one is monitoring your actual hours. There were weeks I only worked 3 days and still hit goals. Coworkers are wonderful people who will give freely of their time to help each other. Feel great about helping people AND the environment

Cons

Making real money requires a LOT of canvasing (door-to-door) even in some pretty bad weather. Paid on install so if installs are delayed, so is your pay check Trinity will NOT pay you for outstanding commissions if you leave the company. This really feels like a scam from a company claiming to stand for "Energy with Integrity". Turnover is pretty high and this really feels like Trinity is taking advantage of this by keeping tens of thousands of commission dollars. Management is not collaborative. They pretend to be open and friendly, but do NOT accept any criticism (constructive or otherwise). District Manager does all the heavy lifting when it comes to admin tasks and gets overwhelmed. Assistant DM is greedily focused on setting sales records and barely contributes to leadership duties. Rather than discipline the ADM, the District Manager will instead delegate ADM responsibilities to senior sales staff, but Trinity will not financially compensate these team members. DM and ADM are best friends from high school and don't like to hear bad things about each other so if you have problems you are forced to elevate your concerns to the regional managers who generally do nothing. Calling HR goes nowhere.
