Pros

The culture is very high energy and not risk-averse, which can result in stressful stretches that are highly satisfying and productive. Everyone is aligned on the vision and higher purpose, and these are emphasized during team weeks and all-company meetings to support morale and ensure that everyone's work matters. The benefits package and the fully flexible work structure are well thought out and supportive. There is an underlying message of "you matter" alongside "work hard, play hard" that emphasizes the importance of having a life outside of work.

Cons

Intersect is growing RAPIDLY, which leads to some expected but sometimes frustrating growing pains. It's worth the challenges if you're comfortable trusting the overall processes and working independently to solve problems.

Pros

+ You get to work on largest solar power plants in the country come to fruition + You can be given lots of responsibility, even as a college new hire. + Run by solar industry veterans: a lot of expertise in-house + Good pay *for solar* + Good cultural fit if you come from finance + Good company performance

Cons

- Pretty horrible work culture if you like work-life-balance. I felt like I had several months of residual fatigue after leaving the company. Many senior partners have health issues too (probably from overwork). They lie/gaslight people about how much work/overtime is actually necessary to meet expectations - They churn through people in junior ranks pretty regularly. For analysts generally want Excel monkeys/workhorses that they wear out in about 2 years (which is how it works in finance). The CEO idolizes the culture at Goldman Sachs if that tells you anything. - People would get hired and fired based on how much they were liked by upper management and a select inner circle. They love people who always say 'yes'. Drawing boundaries can make you a target in many ways. Coworkers were fired for giving honest but negative feedback to upper management. - Upper management were deluded in how "innovative" the company work tools actually were (using Google Sheets doesn't make you high-tech). - Really long work hours and a lot of unnecessary churn - Very poor training / mentorship.
