Pros

Cool product and technology, some really smart and good people are there, but we are slowly loosing them all.

Cons

People in leadership teams lack passion, trust and general managerial skills. Work life balance if off. especially when the stock is not doing well, they should focus more on people aspect of the firm and not on product or business. If people grow business will grow.

Pros

The people at SunPower/BlueRaven were some of the funnest people to work with. I built a lot of great relationships there.

Cons

When SunPower was purchased by TJ Rodgers, he came in and was telling everyone how he was going to turn the whole company around and that "because he's a billionaire he knows how to make it happen" -- Well.. over the span of about a year he laid off about 70% of the company and tried to make other independent contractors so he didnt have to give them a base. The whole company dynamic changed and I now have yet to speak to any former colleagues who enjoyed being there. - Its very toxic now.
