Okay - Recensione dipendente - Call Center Representative presso Direct Energy Solar

Great pay and benefits for the employees

It was mismanaged so they went under.

My coworkers at the Columbia, MD HQ, and throughout our geographic footprint, are committed and resilient, and truly care about advancing the solar industry safely and profitably. They are also a fun bunch, with many who enjoy actively contributing to philanthropic efforts, and to frequently unwinding and enjoying their follow colleagues in non-working cultural events. It's a fun and smart group!

The geographic diversity of a good number of our core senior/executive management makes it difficult to establish that high degree of trust that's critical for overall cultural "buy in" for our solar company, which directly leads to high performance, as we've gone through the sometimes painful process of integration within our parent company. It would be ideal if they could all be based at the Columbia, MD office and be there most weeks out of the month. Remote leadership is a tough nut to crack. It would also be ideal if our shared services leadership, and parent company executive leadership, perhaps better understood/sympathized with the acute stresses of integrating at the pace we have. Despite a challenging and uber-competitive industry landscape, it would be ideal to see more of a commitment to work/life balance in our benefits and policies as we continue to grow and evolve dynamically.
