      Decent pay but high pressure and micromanagement

      Advanced technical support representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work from home and pay was ok at first but then you will hit a road block. Worked there 6 years was making 21 dollars an hour,

      Cons

      High pressure to sell boost mobile cell service even though we work on the tv side of business also to sell starlink internet and regular technical support goals, failure to do so would result in being fired eventually. Little to no job security. Always being asked to do more with little to no pay increases. Dish also does not prepare you for what the job demands, they teach you basic things but mostly your learning on the job. I also always felt threatened by management for example they would post a article saying do this or that if not there would be discipline.

      Good commission and support, but high stress levels

      Retention specialist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Competitive commission. Easy access to necessary info while working. Immediate manager support always available.

      Cons

      Everchanging methods and strategies that management wants implemented. The nature of the phone calls is very mentally and emotionally taxing

      Join only if you are desperate for a job

      Product designer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Sometimes you luck out with a good team/manager - Okay-ish pay - Recently stated promoting internally

      Cons

      - Like school, must badge in before 9AM or your manager gets and email - Restricted to stay inside the building for 8hrs. 8hrs+ if you want to be promoted. Tracks your time diligently. - No hybrid or remote options and no flexibility, worse in some teams. - Top down approach when it comes to running the business, you will constantly be putting out fires because someone in leadership feels a certain way and it needs to be changed immediately. - You will constantly be told how you are not doing a good job by either you manager, or skip and maybe even other people not on your team - No cross functional collaboration - Calls itself as agile but truly is the most waterfall, there is a 7+ step process for pushing anything to production
