Pros

Knowledge of satellites to tv programming and learning how to figure out installation ideas on a min. notice.

Cons

The company is so horrible to their workers that I have never so many people quiting. There is a huge lack of communication in this company. This is not the military, this is a customer service company! If the company treats you, the employee, like a grunt, then more than likely will treat the customer the same way. It is a negative and very uncaring company. It is a shame cause there is so much potential for this company if it would focus on making the employees not feel like slaves.
