Pros
- Great energy and camaraderie working towards solar energy uptake - Overall healthy work-life balance - Lots of really great people working really hard
Cons
- Not as much transparency as was needed. Too many surprises on the "Solar Coaster" - Several manipulative people who took advantage of others' good energy and really tore the company apart

Pros
Nice solar offerings, office location, friendly colleagues, fresh lunch, hilarious moments
Cons
Unsustainable office environment in terms of air quality, high (dirty) power usage and absence rates peaking at 30% at some departments. Management is in a bubble with their excel sheet to Engie and rhetorics about clean energy. Lack of vigor and competence to solve these problems and deliver value to employees, customers and the stakeholders.

Pros
Big vision for making an impact
Cons
The main department leads were all vying for greater importance (Sales vs Marketing vs BD) and pointing fingers at other departments. This made for a poor unified effort when results failed to meet expectations.
