      I have been working at Greenspire full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      The event planning committee is always busy planning a party, potluck, fundraiser, etc. Greenspire has raised thousands of dollars over the years for a variety of important causes.
      There are also great opportunities for promotions. Employees are often recognized for a job well done, receiving awards, certificates, or gift cards.

      Cons

      Parking can be an issue at times, it is Santa Monica after all. However, there is parking available inside the building for a daily fee.

      Advice to Management

      I’d like to see more of an open door policy.

      Great for those self motivated and persistent, opportunities to advance, great income potential, company expanding territory and footprint

      Cons

      Driving times, inconsistent routes, lack of detail

      Advice to Management

      Pay more to attention to what PFs will see in the market and the tools that are available now and not after that situation has passed

      Pros

      What I like most about the company is that if you choose to pursue other career goals and they don't pan out if in good standing with company you can come back to Greenspire.

      Cons

      Sometimes when you don't meet certain quotas there are some serious consequences such as loss of hours.

      Advice to Management

      Be very transparent about quotas and loss of hours with potential new hires.

      Pros

      When I first entered Greenspire, I started with the Inside Marketing Team. They trained me very well, so well that management took notice of my achievements and recommended me for a full-time position with the Operations team.

      Cons

      I honestly can't think of anything.

      Pros

      I like the Industry they are in.

      Cons

      Upper Management do not appreciate their employees. Low pay. If you start working there you won’t last. Trust me. Stay Away.
      Nothing good will come from working here. Upper Management is impossible to get along with. They can’t retain employees. I recommend that you stay away from the company.

      Advice to Management

      There is no point giving any advice. Trust me: they won’t take it.

      Cons

      It is door to door sales. They try to disguise it, but it is definitely door to door and you are only paid if someone signs up for solar.
