Pros

Good pay and commissions I loved my team and coworkers Health insurance Flexible hours Nice faciliity

Cons

I guess that hindsight is 20x20. I was working at the Dish call center for 14 months and then I was fired last week for too many late days. My supervisor took me aside and told me that internal HR policy was to terminate employees after so many late days. He told me that he liked me as a person, but that he had no option. I should have valued what I had more, because I don't know where else I will make as much money.

Pros

The job is easy and most people could probably do it. The people we work worth for the most part make the task of listening to the constant screaming during the day much easier. the benefits are pretty good and the pay is higher than you can get in our small town in Virginia.

Cons

One of my biggest beefs with our call center is the leadership. I have a huge problem with people (especially managers and supervisors) being extremely rude and anything but helpful. they make the job seem like an uphill battle. One supervisor in particular I knew I could lean on when I needed help recently got walked out. He was the most positive person in that building. You could bet you would hear a quote for a pick me up. You knew that when you asked him for help he would be there. The complete just disappointment in this man being out of that building makes it just that much harder to make through the day. So I have to ask myself if they can walk out Eric, why would I ever feel like my job is safe? THATS the problem! none of us can feel like our job is safe. to walk out a 9 year employee with no second thought???

Pros

Lots of money to be made while people are still paying for cable.

Cons

No work life balance. Big dollar punishments for skipping a word in the script up to 300.00. Never be a minute late you'll lose any bonuses you earned that week. Mom's don't apply. Health benefits have high deductible. According to many, expect to be fought on unemployment insurance if let go for whatever reason.
