Review from Sales Dept
My leadership team cares about team morale and builds a positive culture. It's great to come in and know you're part of a team where you can bring up ideas/concerns. Having leaders who listen makes a difference.
Review from Operations Dept
They place trust in people, up and down the chain of command, to get the work done. This leads to a lot of good exposure that I don't think I would have the chance to get at other companies.

Review from Business Development Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Transparency, set realistic goals, communicate with the team about expectations and review ALL processes to update and/or lean them out.
Review from Operations Dept
Higher leadership needs to be better at their jobs of leading.
Review from Operations Dept
Better at acknowledging our hard work and communicating new changes within the company. As well as better communication with builders and utilities that often coordinators need to do on their behalf.
Review from Operations Dept
Listening to the talent they hire. Why bring in talent to make change and then not listening their expertise? Also, I'd make sure the software (CATALYST) is fully baked before launching into the field to disrupt our partner relationships. Better at Leadership over dictatorship.
Review from Sales Dept
The leadership team in my opinion is not friendly and is number driven only.
Review from Operations Dept
The leadership at Sunnova New Homes needs to actually do their job. They do not do any work due to sheer laziness, poor training, and lack of skill. Their team members pick up their slack so leadership doesn't have to lift a finger. Team members go above their title & workload to get anything done.
Review from Operations Dept
Invest some time in training of team members so they can learn/understand the process instead of shaming them in mass emails for attempting to complete an assignment with minimal guidance.
Review from Finance Dept
1) People: bring everyone on the team together with an in-person offsite event. Remote work is difficult to create caring and meaningful experiences among remote workers. 2) Processes & Operation: Exe. team (above Sr. Director) should have a clear understanding of the most updated technologies and
Review from Marketing Dept
Listen to AM's as we drive the residential business.
Review from Sales Dept
Listening to the "troops on the ground" and allowing more autonomy. Working smarter and setting up sustainable processes instead of allowing teams to scramble to get things done as quickly as possible.
Review from Marketing Dept
As a company the executive team need to do an overhaul on the pay structure and titles of people within the business; they need to put more of a focus on culture and less on execution. Direct leadership needs to lead with trust, compassion, decisiveness and organization.
Review from Marketing Dept
Communicating, rewarding and promoting high performing employees, demoting low performing employees, listening
Review from Marketing Dept
We have goals, but no clear vision to achieve them. Other departments also have conflicting goals (legal vs. marketing), making it a battle to win out — an unsustainable work model. There is also no dis
Review from Executive Dept
Pay attention to ALL of your employees. I know we all are busy most times, but take a moment to LISTEN & UNDERSTAND your employees. PROVIDE FAIR TRAINING. STOP treating us like mules. RESPOND to our emails. RECONGNIZE your eager and hard-working employees. MAKE THE WORKLOAD FAIR. Burnout is real.
Review from Legal Dept
To stop micromanaging their employees and making them feel unappreciated for their job performance. Nothing is ever good enough no matter what you do.
Review from Customer Success Dept
Communication needs to be prompt and clear. Too long of a delay to get responses back and unnecessary back and forth to determine a decision
Review from HR Dept
Stop micro-managing, not adjusting to the new work environment. Managing the old way when work is going a new way.
Review from Admin Dept
Communicating the strategy to actually make money. Rewarding high performers with pay improvements. Do not insist managers evaluate all players as "Meets Expectations" regardless of whether they exceed them or not. It is super clear performance evaluations are used solely to keep a lid on payroll.
Review from Communications Dept
Can't get response why insurance plan standard mammogram costs me > $500, can't afford I don't appreciate the exec team pressuring to be on camera in mtgs, benefit of wrk'g remote is not being judged on grey hair & appearance Too many mtgs, too few hrs to wrk No clue company direction wrk in bubble
Review from IT Dept
The leadership team does not appear to value their employees. They appear to be directionless and reactionary.
