Pros

Nothing, this job truly sucked and management was petty and really sucked.

Cons

First of all, they say they’re urgently hiring but then fire people for no good reason. Also you better not have any emergencies, stuff come up, sickness, or anything. They’ll fire you. Their solar panels suck. All the calls that I got at the job were that customers are very unhappy with their solar system. The solar panels, power walls, and their whole solar system gives customers so many issues. So many roof leaks, damages, and lots of customers pay out of pocket. This system is a waste of money. Tesla is ridiculous for letting people go especially when they get back to back calls. They want to complain how no one gets time in between calls, then maybe you should hold on to your employees. The company’s thought process is horrible, the workers get treated like dirt. If a customer is yelling at you and threatening you, they tell you can’t transfer them to a manager. They trained us to say that managers aren’t available ever, but the managers are just lazy pieces of crud. If you’re working for them good luck getting answers to your questions in a timely manner. They’ll tell you they’ll give you some plenty of training but then they magically shorten training and you’re never prepared. In fact we didn’t even get our required equipment they’re supposed to provide on time. This company makes me sick.
