Pros

If you are good at sales then you can possibly make good commission

Cons

You get a lot of bad calls so when you get good calls you have to really go in for the kill to close the deal, so it's very stressfull

The Worst Company In America To Work For Ever

Pros

The raises isn't too bad if you get a good yearly review. So if your there for several years your pay isn't too bad. But most persons don't last very long at all or get a good yearly review. They have the largest turn over here then any were else. The average length of employment for a Installer would be about six months maybe. I have seen so many people terminated for stupid stuff.

Cons

Too many to list here.... They treat you like a sled dog. You work as hard as you can and your pulled in many different directions while working. But they still want you to work harder and threaten to write you up if you don't do it without any overtime. I see many get terminated because of their numbers not to Dish Network standards. You have to work every Holliday if the Holliday falls on your day to work. But corperate gets off on them. This includes New Years, Easter, Momerial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Don't expect to get them off at all. Even if you want to take a PDO. There is no chance of advancment unless you know the GM personaly. Their health Insurance has a very large deductable of $2400,00 a year before they even start to pay for anything. They change your work hours and days to work to the worst ever when they want to and you have no desision in the matter. Some even have their two or three days off spread apart so you don't have two days off together. Some don't get a weekend day off at all.

Pros

Comissions, easy work. load and the pay is pretty good. also you get paid based on performance. Bonuses and metrics are also attainable fairly easy.

Cons

If you don't know how to use a computer, this is an uphill climb. It moves at a fairl fast pace and ou have to be able to speak and type
