Pros

I’ve had a very positive experience working at NYSS. One of the things that stands out most is the people; my team and coworkers are highly engaged, motivated, and genuinely collaborative. Always working together to find solutions. There’s a strong sense that everyone is working toward common goals and willing to support each other along the way. The company offers fair compensation, a great benefits package, and has built a healthy, positive culture that I truly appreciate. Leadership is another major strength. From the CEO, CRO, COO, CTO, and across the leadership team, there is a clear level of passion and commitment to the company and its people. They are resilient, effective, communicative, and willing to navigate challenges head-on. It's refreshing to work with leaders who are so invested in the success of the organization and the people behind it. Overall, NYSS has been a great place to work, surrounded by talented people and a leadership team that genuinely cares about what they are building.

Cons

The pace can definitely be demanding, and priorities can shift pretty quickly as the company navigates the industry's challenges and the market evolves. There’s still room to improve some processes and communication across teams, especially as the business continues to grow. That said, a lot of this comes with scaling a company, and I’ve seen a genuine willingness to recognize what’s not working and make improvements.

Pros

Okay benefits Great coworkers That’s kinda it. Future looks bleak.

Cons

Constantly disorganized and underpays for the amount of work heaped on each individual due to dwindling staff. Firings happen seemingly at random, other people are quitting due to hostile company culture. Leadership is often lost in the weeds, and customers are unhappy. Rampant nepotism and conflicts of interest. Middle management is incompetent but really good at kissing up to the right people for security. Company cares more about appearances than results. Expectations and responsibilities are inconsistent. Underhandedly discriminatory to certain identities. They insist that we’re growing but our staff is smaller than ever, we lose someone nearly every 2 weeks. There are limited paths to upward mobility unless you were hired in from another solar company or know someone in charge. Most positions are dead-end. They expect you to care about the business as if it is your own without the benefits of being an owner. They will tout one employee’s success story of upward mobility or monetary gain to new hires as if that is the norm… it is not. Hollow gestures of gratitude from senior leadership that do nothing to actually help the people who work for them.
