Cheapskates

Let's start a solar workers union

Remaining employees should contact organized labor and start a union. Verizon went on strike. Imagine if all site surveys and installs stopped because of wage fraud (not paying overtime, piecework). Strike for better pay etc. VSLR couldn't replace... — read more

It's not personal, Sonny. It's strictly business.

Look guys and gals. It is unfortunate that offices have closed. Failure is part of capitalism. Survival of the fittest. The offices that closed, simply put, were not performing. They were driving Vivint's cost per watt up. Because Vivint is a... — read more

Two offices laid off in Southern California

They didn't give notice or reason. Fair warning would have been appreciated. This is what happens with bad planning having to meet Wall Street expectations. Human casualties.

Layoffs

Today Vivint solar laid off every employee in my office and spoke of plans to close 13 offices in NY, NJ, Mass, CT, and MA.
