Pros

None, there are no pros. I took the job to get me into the industry.

Cons

I got hired on the high end which was $50k/year in Denver. I'm honestly surprised I lasted a full 6 months. Terrible company to work for. My "Project Coordinator" position was basically just a customer service position where I had to constantly apologize for our company sucking. Worst 6 months of my life. Plus, I was on call all weekend for weekend installs (which were very popular) on my low salaried position and they almost always needed to be rescheduled which just meant more angry phone conversations with the client.

Pros

The pay depends on what you put in. I've seen a range of $100 to $3,500 a week. Averaging $7k to $9k a month. It's a fun work environment, lots of bonuses and prizes, a big territory and kind homeowners.

Cons

50% of your deals cancel. Meaning only 50% of deals make it to install. So as a Setter, the majority of your compensation is from sit pay and contract pay as opposed to kilowatt pay. The reason for low retention is homeowners need a 680 or above to qualify so you get a lot of failed credits. Also, the installation process is around 90 days, Giving homeowners a lot of time to cancel. Management is controlling Not much work life balance
