Unprofessional sales managers - Outside Sales Consultant SolarCity Employee Review

Pros

Great product, great concept, great vision.

Cons

Unprofessional behavior by middle management. Verbally abusive and derogatory comments made about employees in the presence of new hires. A company as great is this should be more aware of the actions, attitudes and arrogant behavior of their sales managers. They speak down to the sales consultants as if they are children with verbal abuse and foul language. Common practice is to belittle a person as if they are not doing things correctly or ever enough.

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.
