Reasonable Company - Marketing Associate Sol-Ark (Portable Solar LLC) Employee Review

Rapidly growing company, excellent professional culture and growth opportunities, highly capable leadership, very cool technology and interesting work, great pay and benefits. Ownership sincerely cares about all employees. Pre-IPO (yes, for real).

Some of the global projects can be a challenge to work efficiently and to keep on track. A universal problem for all companies if you ask me. With Sol-Ark’s rapid growth, some organizational growing pains are inevitable, but most management is highly experienced, handling things well, and easing the way.

When you've been around the block in the business world, you know how to differentiate ownership that truly cares and ownership that doesn't give a darn. Sol-Ark is privately owned. No private-equity banker overlords. Kind-hearted local Texas ownership truly cares about its employees and customers. I've "been there, done that" in the business world since the 20th century, so some of the less positive comments from the younger crowd may not reflect the wisdom of a career of experience. Tremendous health care coverage. HSA and FSA plans. Generous PTO if you put in the time. Easy-going, humble coworkers. Casual dress environment. If you're looking to just get paid and go home as another number in a boring mega-huge corporate, don't apply. If you want to be part of one of the "next big things", get paid to learn a ton and witness evolution in real-time, do apply. At the time of this post, you're experience will be a unique mix of bold entrepreneurs who thrive on "git 'r dun" layered with Fortune 500 leadership that are building a process-oriented foundation for a grand future. Small town feel with a big town approach.

Nobody is perfect. Managing a hyper-growth company is not easy. Growing pains happen. What matters is knowing that ownership truly cares and is working to resolve them. Sometimes new process slows down immediate progress which can, at times, be frustrating for some, not all.
