Life at Sun King

Quotation mark

"From my colleagues, I have gained the knowledge that everyone is unique in their own way, and that our cultures are diverse. I have also learnt to be patient, because English is not a first or second language for a lot of people. I have learnt to wait patiently for someone to figure out the words to communicate their ideas and feelings."

The Sun King Way

To achieve our mission, we hold ourselves to the Sun King Way, our shared value system, and we commit to the following principles that guide our actions.

  • Passion to serve off-grid families

    Powering access to brighter lives  is our life's work: we feel great when we do a great job at it.  Consumers invest in our products to improve their families' lives.  We live up to their expectations with superior service and ever-improving product quality and utility. 

  • Integrity

    Sun King employees live and work with integrity and honesty.  We know that cutting corners, disrespecting the law, and engaging in graft, corruption, or unethical business practices take away from our ability to efficiently and sustainably serve our customers.  We hold ourselves, our colleagues, and our external business partners to the highest standards of integrity. 

  • Inclusivity

    We deeply respect the diversity of individuals that make up Sun King. We prioritize openness and awareness of our individual and cultural differences.  We consciously work towards building an inclusive, safe, encouraging environment for all employees, customers, partners, and associates to thrive.

  • Imagineering

    We believe that many seemingly intractable problems can be solved with a little bit of imagination.  But we recognize that big ideas go nowhere without practical skills and hard work.  Every Sun King employee is an engineer. 

  • Humility

    We believe that to be experts in our craft, we must remain students.  We acknowledge our shortcomings and mistakes.  We know that maintaining vulnerability in our interactions fosters trusting relationships, builds credibility, and strengthens collaboration in the workplace.
