Pros

Absolutely none what so ever!

Cons

This is by far the worst company I have ever worked for. The company culture is expected to be understood and loved minutes into getting in. You are expected to follow archaic procedures for upper management who constantly remind you what dish back in the day used to be. The company is loosing 15 to 30 percent of its clients every year. Then your bonus is tied to service work you’re not getting. The company focuses on process over people leaving no room for growth. A process could be completely out dated and wrong, you and your boss agree it’s wrong, it doesn’t matter you have to do it. Expenses for trips, travel, and even taking care of your team come out your personal money. You then have to hope you stay within a 4 dollar a year per person budget or you are not getting your money back. Facility expenses like alarm company, fire extinguishers, and even getting a car out of impound when they don’t pay tickets comes out of your money and it could take up to 2 weeks to get your funds back. Why would I work to spend money here. There is no training for a manager either. You come on and they throw you to the wolves. They then beat you up for not knowing what’s going on. The company line is this is not to beat you up this is to help for next time.

Thank you for sharing such candid and detailed feedback about your experience. We are sorry to hear that your time with us was frustrating, and we take your comments very seriously, especially those related to our culture and management support. It sounds like you felt a lack of support, particularly in the areas of process flexibility and expense reimbursement. We certainly aim to have clear, supportive processes in place, and we understand how challenging it can be when those systems don't work efficiently, especially when it affects reimbursement for business-related costs. We are constantly reviewing how we can streamline and improve our operational procedures. We appreciate you taking the time to outline these challenges, as your perspective helps us understand areas where we need to focus our efforts to be a better company. We are committed to fostering a culture of growth and support for all employees.

Pros

Work from home is the only pro I can think of

Cons

They don’t provide any equipment aside from the computer itself. They mislead you during the interview and job description. You are paid according to price of product sold and close rate however it’s all inbound calls and you can not call back. The inbound calls are lousy, people who don’t even have a $1 on a card in order to do the eligibility check, or no card at all.. poor credit which leads to higher out of pocket costs. I think only a handful of times I couldn’t overcome the spousal objection or the just shopping objection. Those I will take responsibility for but if I’m getting calls from people who don’t have a card or don’t have a $ or don’t have the money to put down OR already have an account or is a mis-transfer or were passed along because the technicians have to make referrals even though the customer isn’t actually interested in the product yet the tech makes them still call.. that’s crap and it’s not real sales.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective with us. Hearing about your day-to-day reality in sales—from lead quality to equipment needs—is incredibly valuable as we continuously work to refine our internal processes and onboarding experience. While we are glad you enjoyed the flexibility of working from home, it is disheartening to learn that you felt misled by our initial job description and interview process. We want to ensure our teams feel properly supported and equipped to succeed in their roles. Our People Operations team would welcome the opportunity to dive deeper into your feedback regarding our commission structures and lead generation systems. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at peopleoperations@dish.com so we can better understand your specific situation. Thank you again for your candor in this situation.
