Pros

Able to ride quickly with my ability.

Cons

Management has mishandled the company so bad that there are numerous lawsuits filed against them. Failing a majority of their employees. And still grossly overpaying the board in bonuses when the workers get laid off.

Pros

Competitive base salary, some flexible work

Cons

They say they care about all employees but have different handbooks and different rules for different businesses. If you don't work in Clean Energy, you are a second-class citizen. Toxic environment, do not apply here.

Pros

Reputable, large company. Room for growth. Competitive pay and benefits.

Cons

Landed this job after a previous layoff with the assurance that the team was growing and the company was very stable. Seemed ideal. Laid off with many others within less than a year at the first sighting of potential tariffs. Knee jerk reactions to hire/eliminate personnel on momentary business demands is frankly immoral. Layoffs and RIF are not unknown here. Job performance is not analyzed or weighted accurately. There are wildly different calibers of team members. Leadership will put strain on project/product teams to produce great results in aggressive timelines. Nothing unexpected really, just a tradeoff that exists.
