Sunrun – It started off great, but after the merger things seemed to go downhill fast. When 60% of the sales team is not meeting their goals it's time for management to take a look in the mirror instead of pointing fingers and assigning blame towards the sales department.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

Sunrun has been a transformational experience for me. I love the business model but think we should focus more on Sunruns originsl core values. I have had a fun snd life changing experience here at Sunrun. Although not perfect i was challeneged in ways i never have been and learned lessons

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Let's figure out a way to work together to reach our goals instead of every department working against each other.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

I think we need to have more comradery and not see eachother as competition. Some people dont want to help others for fear of giving up a competitive advantage

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

We have alot of people here that beleive in the impact renewables cam have on the world and genuinely want to be a part of the positive change towards renewables.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

I think our leadership team should be more focused on helping us grow and get better in our roles instead of focusing on competing with and out selling their subordinates

What makes you most happy at work?

The prospect of helping another home owner make the change to renewbles. I feel like im helping to change lives and make an impact on our planet while leaving a legacy behind.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Management needs to stop playing favorites and stop discriminating against certain reps. They are extremely disrespectful to people in the FSC position and act like we are disposable and often take sides against us with other departments. They rule through fear and retaliation instead of dialogue.

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

The executive team took away our salaries, while other departments received raises. They treat us like children and accuse us of being rude or disrespectful when we voice concerns that they don't feel are valid. Please treat us like human beings who deserve empathy, dignity, and kindness.

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

The removal of our base salaries in my department has led to increased responsibilities, and I believe we should receive a minimum annual base salary of 35k in addition to our commission pay to reflect the work we now perform. Implementing a CAP bonus/install bonus would further focus on installs

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

You need to value your sales team more. Many reps are talking about taking their talents to other companies and industries because of the lack of respect from managers in retail and our immediate managers. Much is expected from us with little help and when we do not succeed we are disrespected const

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Our concerns are not taken seriously. These surveys are the only time we are given room to be ourselves and say how we truly feel without fear of retaliation or managers flat-out lying about us to get what they want. Please treat us like we are a part of the solution and not the enemy.
