Pros

The occasional lead that is real and homeowner wasn’t lied to (1 in about 20)

Cons

It’s pretty simple , the solar market has changed and trinity refuses to change with it. When other companies were offering 10-20 percent more in pay it was understandable to be hesitant to leave not much more to be made for the risk of leaving. But the competition is now paying up to 10 x more for the same amount of work. I honestly don’t know how anyone would stay to make incredibly less money for the same amount of work. Don’t buy any of the bs upper management gives you about being a sustainable company and that’s why they pay how they do. It’s a cult and family and friends of the leaders get moved up to easy positions where they made 250 k a year plus for looking at charts and planning galas. Also don’t believe that their ops and leads are so great that’s why they pay the way they do , it’s the same anywhere else you go. I could go on and on but it comes down to one singular point , they are the lowest paying company to sell for and the most demanding. You can get way more for the skill set needed to do this job.

Pros

Great people, caring upper management, fun meetings, good coworkers, great work environment, uncapped commission potential, base salary, full health, dental, vision, variety of optional insurances, 401k with large company match, actually helping people save money, helping the planet.

Cons

Inter-department communication, slow company-wide decision making, bad apples have forced upper management to make decisions that feel like tight leash on entry level reps.
