I am in my 5th year with this company and still can say it's the best job I ever have had!!!

No 401k plan for employees - Rumor is that principals are working on resolving this

Loyalty issues
|
|
No need to workout when you're an installer. You get paid to do it.
|
They bought a bunch of toys and new property when they saw a little bit of growth. Then they started laying off a ton of employees when money was short. Not the guys with brand new trucks and cushy jobs, but the guys who drive old cars and do all the hard labor. If you're looking for a job in solar, I can not reccomend this company. I was willing to work hard and retire with them, but management can't see past themselves.

Get your priorities straight. You have a maturity issue and you need to learn some loyalty to more than your toys.

Best company - and people - to ride the solar coaster with!
|
|
Amazingly smart and talented and fun team; start-up speed and agility paired with the resources of a mid-size company; strong leadership and great culture - mission-based, customer-oriented, open, supportive, adventurous, honest and open; exciting and fulfilling industry that's on the verge of going mainstream. Great place to build a career!
|
Intense focus on results can create a pressure-cooker environment, some long-term risk that you'd expect with any small company, no 401k

Refreshing Atmosphere - Wish there mere more like this!
|
|
This is not my first "rodeo" so to speak, so believe me when I say that I've seen the best and worst in work environments. Freedom Solar Power is HANDS DOWN the best place I have worked in my 20+ year career. While it is true there is no perfect workplace, this is about as close as you will find.
Employees are helpful and team-oriented. Yes, there's always one or two that try to rock the boat every now and then, but those are the exceptions and not the rule.
|
The company has grown very quickly and is in an industry which is definitely cyclical. So, if you are someone not familiar with working in a cyclical industry (ie, oil & gas), then you should do some research first. Working in this type of industry requires you to have a LONG-TERM business outlook, not short-sighted and near-term.
There are no cons as far as management, staff or benefits. I wouldn't change a thing.

Friendly workforce in up and down industry
|
|
Friendly coworkers with a "family" feel. The executives are willing to work with you to find the right fit in the company.
|
Pay could be more competitive and the industry as a whole is up and down.

Smaller company so you do get to do a lot more of the work. Everyone is extremely friendly and willing to answer questions.
|
Not always a lot of work to do so you may have to make yourself busy.

DO NOT WORK HERE
|
|
Relaxed work atmosphere and great solar panels
|
Culture is competitive and cutthroat, the sales team undermine eachother and do not help eachother out. Some of the tactics are typical slimy sales techniques. I was lied to in the interview about my role, salary, and culture, so double (or triple) check everything in your offer letter and bring it up if it was not what you were told. There are no boundaries for work life balance.

Be aware of what you're saying to and about people, or around people. If you expect your employees to be professional, act professionally towards them. Your employees don't need to know extremely personal details about you. Motivating in a positive way instead of tearing people down could go a long way as well.
