Pros

A credit towards their services but if you quit your locked in to the 24 month commitment.

Cons

Continues to work employees six days a week and rarely allows employees to take a day off. The scheduling is very chaotic there are very few full time schedules that allow employees Saturday and Sunday consecutively off. Your success will be in the hands of the types of calls you receive and what type of person is rating your phone calls. Managers or so called coaches are hardly there for support, when customers ask to speak with management, supervisors try to makes excuses no to take the call.

Pros

Build a resume.Become part of management.Q.A.S. just goes out and makes sure that jobs are done rite and safe. Q.A.S clocks out at 5'clock most days but dont get paid as much as an F.S.M. have a little bit of a tougher job. They cannot clock out until the last tech leaves the shop. F.S.M can easily be disliked due to the fact they have the last say in when a tech gets to go home. Usually F.S.M will leave tech on the clock for a about 12 to 15 hours a day, however F.S.M do get paid more than a Q.A.S

Cons

Very Long hours.Too many changes in policy too quickly. No holidays off at all. Dangerous weather is almost completely ignored by management. Management will not let a tech clock out until 10:30 pm and then write you up for showing up at 6:33 am, clock in time is 6:30! Very difficult to get a raise as a tech ( the company makes it sound easy). Benefits are garbage ( ALL THE ABOVE APPLIES TO TECH POSITION NOT MANAGEMENT)

Pros

If you like working with your hands and being outside this is the job for you. Plus you get free basic Dish Network Service. Also they supply you with everything you need to do your job. of course if you loose a tool then they expect for you to pay for a new one.

Cons

If you like working long hours in all types of weather conditions then this is the job for you. If not look somewhere else. Dish is always changing. One thing will be one way the next day it could be completly different. Managment is disorganized most of the time and feels like they have no idea what they are doing.
