High turnover/poor work-life balance

Pros

As stated by a previous commenter, there are some exceptional people here who are friendly and willing to share their knowledge

Cons

Work-life balance is poor. The threat of layoffs is ever present and used to motivate salaried employees to work long hours and put work ahead of family. This is somewhat justified by annual bonuses. Unfortunately the company has a habit of getting rid of many new employees prior to the end of the fiscal year so as to avoid actually paying out these bonuses to them. Job security is a constant concern for this reason but also because of uncertainties relating to the future of renewables. The solar tax break is scheduled to be reduced soon which could be disastrous for this company and others like it. This company is poorly structured and very little training or communication occurs. The expectation is that you will figure things out on your own and not ask too many questions.

Pros

This is a growing company, that has lots of work coming its way. It is inolved in most projects in the wind and solar utitlity scale industries. There are some friendly professional people here. There seems to be a desire to be high quality and there are a few very talented staff.

Cons

This company has high turn-over and a true disomfort with open, direct communication. There are not many policies or procedures in place, and no job descriptions however there is no avenue to get direction or clarification in this void. There is lots of gossip in the office. Many employees have come and gone experiencing a disconnect between what they thought their job was and how it turned out.
