Pros

The mentors were very helpful and honest with the work process which involved canvassing (walking around neighborhoods and knocking on people's doors)

Cons

In all honesty, Taylor is probably the most dishonest, deceitful, disrespectful person I've ever personally worked for. The only good part of this organization are the two or three mentors who were actually honest with the work and actually respectful to the other employees. (Of course they got treated terribly by Taylor too)... He would tell us to sign up EVERYONE regardless of their financial situation which resulted in many callbacks (where we have to pay our commission back), and sometimes he would even curse at his employees and tell them that he was the boss and that he could do whatever he wanted in the office. (Lol and he studied LAW in college. What a joke)

Pros

Everyone here works hard and knows how to do their job. They only hire top notch people in the industry to get things done quickly and efficiently.

Cons

This Glassdoor page has reviews from multiple other companies, unrelated to New Paradigm Vancouver. I understand New Paradigm is a common name but please review the correct company. We have nothing to do with Massage Therapy and Solar Energy!!!

Pros

this offers a place for all of the dangerously stupid young individuals in our society to be during the day so they aren't out getting in trouble on the streets.

Cons

This is a review on the solar company New Paradigm in Burbank CA. Its a joke. Its just a branch off of Solplicity which is a door to door solar sales company. They hire young "entry level" people to walk door to door and lie to people about saving them money by switching electricity providers. They hire these young people that are entry level and feed them a bunch of BS about "growing out of control!" and "job promotions after 10 weeks!" and once they realize this is indeed untrue they quit and are easily replaced. You become an ignorant pawn for a scummy company. Do you know why they have to keep making tons of little branches with different titles? So that when you look them up they look young and small and that the growing thing might be true. Also so that you do not look up and find the half 'aced' history of their parent company and how you just walk door to door and get yelled at in the hot sun. They remain ridiculously ambiguous throughout the interview process to suck you in, and then when you are called back for the next interview its the door to door garbage. Also, they lie about "having multiple positions open" so that its ambiguous that you will be selling door to door. I am embarrassed that I made it to the second interview, which I promptly walked out after they were having there dumbace pep rally to disguise the scumbag sales. In college my roommate signed up with some sales person named "infinity" with a sales company that would "save us money" and it raised our rates and we had to cancel. I'm insulted they wasted that much of my time with a degree and heavy IT background. Kids that dropped out of high school from now on please. That way smart people dont expose you on the internet. They really thought I was dumb enough to fall for that bologa after the first interview? Im insulted. You make 30k before taxes maybe (I didn't get that far) but you are just a number to them. Dont hit sales quota? Your going to get fired.
