Pros

Okay benefits Great coworkers That’s kinda it. Future looks bleak.

Cons

Constantly disorganized and underpays for the amount of work heaped on each individual due to dwindling staff. Firings happen seemingly at random, other people are quitting due to hostile company culture. Leadership is often lost in the weeds, and customers are unhappy. Rampant nepotism and conflicts of interest. Middle management is incompetent but really good at kissing up to the right people for security. Company cares more about appearances than results. Expectations and responsibilities are inconsistent. Underhandedly discriminatory to certain identities. They insist that we’re growing but our staff is smaller than ever, we lose someone nearly every 2 weeks. There are limited paths to upward mobility unless you were hired in from another solar company or know someone in charge. Most positions are dead-end. They expect you to care about the business as if it is your own without the benefits of being an owner. They will tout one employee’s success story of upward mobility or monetary gain to new hires as if that is the norm… it is not. Hollow gestures of gratitude from senior leadership that do nothing to actually help the people who work for them.

Pros

The operations team is stellar at what they do. A lovely Manhattan, Penn Plaza Building to work out of. Coworkers were kind, inclusive and fun to work with. Their CTO is one of the kindest people you'll meet.

Cons

The upper management and leadership of this company frankly are among the most unprofessional that I've had the misfortune of encountering. I have never seen a CEO, or upper management team have such disdain, disrespect , intimidation and cold indifference out of all of my experiences working in a professional field. Members of upper management have relationships with their subordinates or lower managemen. Show clear favoritism. The sales team will be treated like gold who have the personality profile of someone that's watched Wolf of Wall Street one too many times. They will change rules on the fly without notice and will apply rules only to people they don't like and allow the ones they do , to do whatever. Also the inflexibility of zero hybrid or remote work with 100% in office attendance makes no sense. They'll hire 5 managers but will balk at hiring actual useful operations staff or install teams. How can you trust HR when they're involved with upper management?
