Great leadership, honest company, authentically good at installing solar.

Not a lot of training (by design). The role I was in was meant for people who already had solar sales experience

Decent pay work on your own time kind of

Cons

Will stop giving you leads without warning Will let you go before payments are made and not pay you.

Pros

Work from home. Start up environment.

Because it's a start up environment, you have to be a self starter.

Pros

I worked at sungrade for 1 year. And it was the best year of my life and best job I’ve ever had. I grew immensely as an individual and made amazing friends. Gained massive amounts of confidence and implemented news habits and ways of thinking that literally changed my life. A lot of the structure on how sungrade operates has shifted, for the better! When I first started it was a little to hard core and had a bit of a frat style culture. But half way through my time here there was a change in management. And I have absolutely nothing bad to say from there on out. Sungrade gives you some of the best sales training you will ever receive. The managers genuinely care about their reps. The culture pushes you to do your best in sales and grow as a person, but isn’t overwhelming and allows you to have a sense of independence. The commission structure is unbeatable, from an entry level business development role up to your experienced account manager position there is an amazing opportunity to make great money. It’s structure makes certain that everybody gets fed regardless of position or experience.

Cons

Keep in mind when applying or reading the reviews on here that this is a commission only position and like any other sales job you will have your good months and your bad months. The majority of negative reviews on here are before the restructuring of management and does not reflect sungrade’s current environment. Sungrade is a hidden gem in the solar industry and if you are looking to break into sales for the first time or if you are already an experienced sales vet, there is no better place to be.

Pros

I've never worked for a company that allowed you the freedom to succeed and grow like this before. I was hired to help build a new department. Walking into the job, I expected to be told how they wanted this done, that done, and when it needed to be done by. I was expecting to get some marching orders like every other job I've been at. I was EXTREMELY pleased to find out on my very first day that it wasn't like that at all. They trust my judgment with everything and gave me the creative freedom to truly build the new department up, while at the same time always being available to assist with anything I need or answer any questions I may have. Unbelievable! This is a young company, so growth potential is amazing. I'm excited to help with and witness Sungrade grow from a Solar company in California to a nationwide company. I haven't met one person in this company from the CEO down to the sales agents that isn't an amazing and supportive person.

Cons

"What are some of the challenges of working here?" Well, me personally, I like to be challenged. So that's a pro for me! I haven't found any frustrating parts yet though. If you are looking for an easy job, don't work here. Just don't. But if you're looking for growth and opportunity. If you're looking for a place that can take your skills and experience to the next level, even if that's going to be applied to future jobs, this is a great place to do it.

Pros

Who wouldn't want to fly to California, network and work with a group of incredibly ambitious, talented individuals, and make tons of money? GRADING: A+ opportunity to grow and no cap to money-making potential ---------- A+ the BEST training available. from day 1 you receive high-grade sales and marketing education that lets you rapidly excel and reach your income goals ---------- B social life... you won't be at the clubs every night to party, but you will to celebrate closing a big deal or making your first 5 figure weekly check. Don't worry, your bank account will thank you ;) Also very important details... - make your own hours - fun competitions and incentives to be a top-producer - incredible advancement opportunity, hard workers are excessively rewarded - the ONLY skills required are ambition, work ethic, and willingness to learn - anyone can succeed in this organization if they are willing to learn and apply the training - you rapidly will build friendships and connections with ambitious and powerful people - incredible company culture Summary: Very fun, rewarding opportunity. Open-minded, ambitious people always excel here. You have infinite opportunity to grow your income and grow as a person - and you will work with people who genuinely want the best for you and for the company. What to do now: Send in your application. Seriously, let's do it.

Cons

- lots of work; this is not a "laid back" type of job - you won't be able to party, go out clubbing, etc if you want to maintain a top-producer spot (everyone works insanely hard)

Pros

flexible work schedule, make your own hours

Cons

pay, 1099, not much room for growth

Pros

You are inserted into a positive and challenging environment that allows you to step beyond your comfort zone and achieve success you had never dreamed was possible. Everyone in the company is highly motivated quality individuals who are mutually supportive and all accelerating towards a similar goal. We work in a booming industry that is still in its early stages of growth and we get to provide a service that not only saves people money, but has a positive impact on the environment as well. Furthermore we are able to develop relationships homeowners/clients that go beyond business. We become part of these people’s lives and they deeply appreciate what we offer and represent. We have the ability to manage our own schedual and control our destiny as far as how successful we want to be. Our earning potential is unlimited and is solely dependent on how much effort we put fourth. It’s refreshing to know we can manage our own business as we see fit and experience a direct relationship between how much we work and our success level. We get to live in one of the best states in the country working for a company that is on the brink of industry dominance. Our leadership is bar-none and the executives are down to earth and truly care for the well being of every individual in the company. Sungrade has a goal to head the world wide transition of how people get their power; I firmly believe this is the company that will spearhead this initiative.

Cons

I have yet to experience any cons.

Pros

Only good part of the job was getting to work out of my home

Cons

Company lacks communication, no transparency, and management is absolutely terrible

Pros

At Sungrade you are in control of your income. Your pay is reflective of the amount of work you put in as well as how much impact you make in the world. I've been an entrepreneur and had many learning experiences before working here and this is a dream come true. The energy is young and vibrant, and the people who run Sungrade are among the most beautiful and humble human beings I've ever met. If you want to make a certain amount of money, you can go help people save money and the planet to achieve your goals. It's a little crazy to think about sometimes, but that's how it works here.

Cons

I guess cons would be that working here is NOT for everyone. Sungrade is solely for ethical, hardworking people who can stay organized and consistent. Because you make your own schedule, working here means being committed to what you're doing. If you have a lot on your plate already or other interests, sungrade probably isn't for you.
