Pros

Having a salary. Some great colleagues across teams.

Cons

Communication from exec leadership is terrible. Either new “exciting” ideas are shared too soon and never eventuate, or they don’t share important updates. There doesn’t appear to be a clear long-term strategy. Teams are regularly required to shift focus, but underlying problems remain. Incentives or competition rewards are often so minimal that they negatively impact morale rather than motivate. Payout decisions lack transparency, and disputes over commission splits or eligibility are common, often arising late in process. Desk setup seems designed to make your targets impossible and internal systems can make it harder than necessary. Lack of support, they don’t have processes to fall back on and provide minimal training. The rating history shows a noticeable cluster of 5 star reviews posted within a short period (March 2022), which raises questions.

Pros

Amazing work/life balance, real growth opportunities, entrepreneurial leaders and peers, genuine interest in clean energy, good PTO, Renewables and Clean Tech is a strong, growing industry.

Cons

Working here has a start up feel to it, which isn't a con for me - I personally love being flexible and getting creative with solutions, but some people may like having a more formal approach to work.

Pros

Management that genuinely cares about their team. Generous pay with uncapped commission structure. Focus on positive performance, improvement and an inclusive culture/environment. Ability to work remotely where appropriate.

Cons

Culture can be difficult to maintain when remote, however mitigated by online meetings and virtual team events.
