Pros

Worked with a team of talented people while at Dish

Cons

- Outdated Old Leadership (working at Dish is not like working at a real Tech company. Dish tries to compare themselves to Amazon. Dish will never be on the same level or even close to Amazon unless Amazon buys out Dish. - Dish is a horrible company no matter what your position is - DISH is headed toward Bankruptcy - Massive Layoffs - Boost Service is horrible - they will never be competition for Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Their own employees don't even use Boost Mobile. - You will have a workload of 2+ employees - Outdated Technology - not provided with proper tools to do job - Cheap (not furgal, not thrifty - just cheap) - Meetings all day just to talk about nothing - just to micromanage you - Dish is not inclusive. Don't be fooled by the claim that they are. Dish is the least inclusive company you will encounter if you don't look like the majority.

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.

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.
