Bait-and-Switch Company That Lies to the Employees

Pros

You get to work from home. You get to experience a disorganized company. It is a great job if you only want to earn a three-figure salary!

Cons

They pulled a bait-and-switch. I applied for the full-time position and got placed as a part-time PAR employee instead even though I have many years of engineering experience, have a California Structural Engineer License, and an ICC certificate for building plans examiner. They became upset because I had a full time job when their offer letter stated I find a full time job as they do not offer any employee benefits. My start date was supposed to be mid-February, but it did not happen until mid-April. I had to remind them about this issue. I had to interview for the full-time position again and never heard from the Manager for over 3 months. They are very disorganized. They have offices closer to my home, yet did not even have anyone review my paperwork for employment. I never got to finish any of my building plan reviews at all. I only worked 12 hours total since I started in April and have had no work since mid-May.. If this is how they handle prospective employees, imagine how they treat their full-time employees and even their clients.

Pros

Work flexibility, Management and overall staff. Co workers are cool and miss the family, Workday is typical get out there and do audits, come back with results to the client and close. It's 70% rebate from Con Ed so why not! It's all about attitude and how excited you can be about energy efficiency, lighting retrofit ext. Definitely recommend for anyone wanted to work in the energy efficiency game.

Cons

A few reporting issues, overall management vision and direction. Things that take time if no experience in the industry or for this program. Many times it was the utility holding back a few ideas and marketing strategies that would of worked smarter not harder sort of speak. Overall, the pros over weight the cons and it was a great experience
