Vantaggi
Good people to work with. Supervisory management is encouraging and in most cases, well informed.
Svantaggi
There are FAR too many to list in detail, so I will focus on the worst. One, the upper management is clue less about the solar industry as a whole. Two, lack of gender inclusion, especially in the policy making and administrative areas. Three, Lack of effective communication between different divisions of management, particularly between company senior management, and those at the ground level. All of this results in sloppy, ill prepared management, with no clue as to the reality of the day to day , boots on the ground , employees, and the challenges they face at their particular retail location. The expectations of management, are completely unrealistic, and reflect a general, overall ignorance of sales, marketing, and the realities of the solar industry in general. This results in the "work off the clock"syndrome, you see in FAR too many "marketing" and "promotional" positions today. Low pay, the constant positioning of a promoter in an area, where it is well known that leads, (and therefore bonuses, raises, and adequate salaries), are all but impossible to achieve, which leads to an incredibly high turn over rate in the company. 90% of new hires ARE gone, (quit, or fired), within one year. IF you can manage on full time hours, with a below minimum wage, (that is until you MIGHT be one of the lucky few who can outlast this situation, and build up your pipeline of leads), Then this might be the job for you. If you can't?.... Then I would recommend you look for a job elsewhere.
