Pros

Company has a good environmental benefit to the planet Good people to work with mostly... Company tablet, backpack and free food drinks at meetings Occasional company outings and breakfasts Reimbursment for travel over 50 miles away Good networking opportunities You dont have to work as hard as the miserable cashiers in the Home Depot If you are in a fresh territory you can make some money, and good money, potentially, (until you eventually burn out)

Cons

No job security Dont expect to work more than 3 months Pay structure subject to change; always against your favor Bad management

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.
