Sunrun Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

You work is rewarded with the commission plan.

Review from Sales Dept

Best pay I've ever had.

Review from Sales Dept

All of the parts of the compensation package are great

Review from Sales Dept

Medical is the best part of compensation

Review from Design Dept

The benefits are good, and the hourly pay is competitive. However, recently, the company has been taking responsibilities from other departments and adding them to the operations teams plates. They did this directly after making our bonus structure less lucrative And borderline unnattainable.

Review from Operations Dept

Pay freedom flexibility no micro managing

Review from Sales Dept

Excellent health benefits with plenty of support for questions. Great employee stock purchase plan.

Review from Operations Dept

The commission percentage and stock bonuses

Review from Sales Dept

Power U! Great Heathcare! Awesome and Amazing Runx contests hoong in year round. Best team building events ever! We have spent many teambuilding days caring for the Aina planting trees and cleaning beaches followed by catamaran sails and ocean adventures!

Review from Sales Dept

I find my pay fairly. I would like to apply for a position that pays more to be able to pay the California live in cost.

Review from Sales Dept

Self Development and incentives. Growing as a person. Ability to grow financially & opportunities to grow with the company.

Review from Sales Dept

salary I guess. bonus isn't definitely going to be paid out.

Review from Legal Dept

Base pay and RSUs are the best part

Review from Product Dept

allowances. I felt fooled when it say Day 1 I am covered with health card . Yes Day 1 we were covered but not fully covered only for PhP 10,000.00 for 6 months if we are regularized we will get the full coverage. I feel bad about it.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Width of offerings to meet many different individual needs.

Review from Design Dept

I get paid hourly as this time

Review from Sales Dept

Very expansive and affordable for my family.

Review from Business Development Dept

The fact you provide the pet insurance. I wish it was like a traditional pet insurance but anything helps. The lawyer and ID protection is truly a good thing too.

Review from Design Dept

Just having good health and dental insurance.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Don't know I'm sorry

Review from Customer Success Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I feel I should get paid more bc of my experience and work ethic

Review from Operations Dept

Executives decided to mostly eliminate the bonus pay structure for field workers basically cutting our pay by 20-25%. Don't think they realize the strain this has put on many.

Review from Operations Dept

Each year our compenastion has been reduced via budget cuts to bonus structure. I am payed less year over year due to budget cuts and asked to take on more responsibility for less compensation.

Review from Operations Dept

Increase in wage to keep up with current economic downturn

Review from Sales Dept

Their compensation is highly variable state to state. They don't keep up with the cost of living. They have only been decreasing possible earnings over the last year and a half.

Review from Operations Dept

I deserve to be paid what I deserve, primarily since I have worked here the longest in my field. When I reach out to HR, have them respond to me on a phone call, not a generic email that they never respond to.

Review from Operations Dept

No benefits available for street team

Review from Sales Dept

Better base pay. Less commission oriented.

Review from Sales Dept

I’m not getting enough hourly pay as I

Review from Sales Dept

My manager has put me up for promotion the previous 2 review cycles, which have been approved by my director (two different directors). Ultimately, the promotions were rejected at the VP/Executive level for various reasons. This can be discouraging after receiving a "Crushed It" rating.

Review from Business Development Dept

The Job is easy.. But its made me feel stagnat in certian ways because it is so repetitive all the time. I also go into the office everyday while everyone else works from home. It doesnt bother me, but i would like a better social dynamic that is In real time and real life in person help

Review from Sales Dept

I would like my role to have defined goals and responsibilities. I would like to be able to benchmark my salary against similar goals at other companies. But I am somewhat a 'jack of all trades', making it difficult to gauge how I compare to the market.

Review from Finance Dept

Too much time is taken on helping customers post sale because our customer service is not taking care of them in timely manners and sometimes not even on their first request.

Review from Sales Dept

Increase hourly wage. Increase medical PPO coverage to 90%. As for sniff, make sure all Retail Sales Advisor in different markets have equal chance to win top prizes instead only a few Retail Sales Advisors also win due to their markets have high energy bills that make it much easier to achieve.

Review from Sales Dept

Be recognized for the hard work you put in day in and day out and be rewarded for it vs put down and not able to advance or move up in the company to show that you are valued

Review from Operations Dept

The day-to-day responsibilities have changed so dramatically that the workload can become very overwhelming knowing we are not paid for the multiple jobs we do. We have had 3 VPs in 2 years and with the amount of change, our pay should have increased. Other companies pay more for doing the same job.

Review from Customer Support Dept

My income has not risen as much as inflation has

Review from Design Dept

I think that all large companies underpay their employees and Sunrun is no different.

Review from Legal Dept

My income has been decreasing for the last 2 yrs, my salary and things I can expense have been taken away. I drive a personal car for work for which I get some money, but that has not increased at all in my 5 yrs here! Getting paid more would help, so would a base salary, higher car stipend, expense

Review from Sales Dept

I feel as though someone in the RSA role who is as valuable as we’re told we are, the best people on each te
