Vantaggi
Can't think of one, except that maybe when Elon Musk re organizes this bunch of numbers driven managers maybe there will be something good in it. Right now, numbers driven managers have run the company into the ground because they failed to institute loan purchase programs and we are left in the dust. Even Sunrun has better solar loan programs.
Svantaggi
They will use new people constantly to prop up their appt numbers, they discard the Field Energy Specialists as they become burned out and replace with new ones. They don't promote within, they bring in consultants from the outside. The managers stalk you at Home Depot to see if you are there on time and track you through their GPS tablets instead of motivating you. Not very professional, so unprofessional. Their strategy is that all new people have a reasonable higher number of appts since they are new material and they have not been exposed to the grinding 8 hr, 300plus customer engagements expected of you per day for at least 8 months, 30 appts per month and 30 closings prior before they talk of promoting someone to consultant (Unattainable task). Sales consultants have a habit of not showing up for appointments even when they are required to even when unable to contact by phone. When they do show up they can't convert the apppointment to close the deals, they leave the customers hanging and don't call them back.
