Training is very poor they do not prepare you for The actual job. Your at fault when direct tv equipment fails. Expected to bring everything up to code on a service call for 23$. Unless you can Do a service call in less than an hour your paid less than a gas station attendant. Also your expected to not go over 40 hours in a week. Yet Your working over 10 hours a day 5 to 6 days a week. You could get stuck on a service call for hours. And if you couldn’t fix it well your going to Get hit on your metrics. If you go to a house with no line of sight for a dish you get dinged on your metrics.

Pros

Nothing at all. It's all listed in the cons.

Cons

We were sold off to them from Optimum. Quickly trying to become the worst company in America to work for. They took away our vacation. Our sick time. Our personal time. They took away holidays. Now they are saying that working a holiday is mandatory unless you asked it off 2 weeks before it (they gave notice of that less than a week before it). They monitor wherever you are, doing whatever, soon as that truck moves. You aren't allowed to backup. If you call in two times in a 90 day period, you're in trouble. If it gets to 8 times (the last call in continues it on) you're fired. They overwork you because they are "behind" and you're just expected to work later. We're expected to do more and for less. They even denied our merit raises saying they didn't believe in them. They don't care about your family and wanting to see them. To be able to spend time outside of work. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY IF YOU CAN HELP IT!
