      Pros

      Great group of people - the type of people who want to make a difference in the world.

      Cons

      They lied. After grinding it out at Home Depot for a month, I learned that the salary expectations the recruiter gave me are not even close to being on target; instead of $60k, try 40k, if you are good. And if you thought that was bad, I found a couple of guys who are still SES's after two years, even though they could be SEC's they just realized they can make more money as a SES. So disappointing. I was really excited to work for a company that is saving the world, and having Elon as my boss. Unfortunately, Solarcity knows this, and they use it to their advantage, to pay as a little as possible. Shame on you guys

      Pros

      Just to quantify my review a bit, I am within the top 10% of inside sales reps within our 12,000 person company. It is a great place to work and people doing well ARE able to make good money here. The executive team ALWAYS has a platform for reps to help make SolarCity a better place every quarter. They involve the top 20 reps each quarter in various ways to help their peers through an interactive group called Team Elite. Executives, VP's, Directors, and Managers are always willing to help and go to bat when there are issues with things that need to be fixed. The direction of the company is consistent and although the company is large, decision makers work as hard as possible to steer the big ship quickly when necessary.

      Cons

      Knee jerk reactions with decision making at a director level create issues from time to time. Culture has had its ups and downs due to HUGE growth last year and subsequent high attrition rates.
