Pros

Free trainings they provide you but will terminate you if you don't show up to them. You are self employed yet treat you like you are W2. So not much of a pro but thats it. You work with preppy positive delusional people who end up paying the majority of their pay on taxes. This field is cut throat and you are not guaranteed any pay nor can you sue for anything since they have created a system to sign up as many recruits as possible using them and their resources to conquer their objectives. Ruining people's lives selling them a risky dream. Pyramid scheme. Whatever they can do to dominate the market, they will do it.

Cons

Borderline Scam. They have it set up so if you quit or get terminated which they make it very easy to be termed if you do not meet quota within a months time, you will not be guaranteed any pay for the work you have in the pipeline that is still undergoing permits like main panel upgrades, so don't quit and expect a final paycheck. You are not guaranteed any money for months of work, so you basically work on the premise of hope. Not guaranteed any pay.

Pros

There’s a clear sense of purpose in the product, since it connects directly to lowering energy costs and cleaner power in California. When conversations go well, you can see people move from uncertainty to interest pretty quickly, which makes the work feel meaningful in short bursts. The retail environment also builds strong communication skills fast.

Cons

The pace can be repetitive, with similar objections and explanations throughout the day, and performance is closely tied to metrics. Some days feel more like managing skepticism than having new conversations, which can be draining over time.
