Pros

One of the few pro's left about working at dish are the individual teams. Some great people who deserve better work at dish.

Cons

Dish enforced culture is not culture at all but instead an edict you have to recite with a smile on your face or risk a talk with HR. CPAW isn't a culture anyway and the real culture at dish is toxic and stifling. The overbearing surveillance of employees shows a lack of trust all around. Salaried employees can expect to have their productivity hours logged from their laptops. You can also expect to have your time in the office strictly logged based on badge in and out times. If you are salaried they don't care how much work you get done as long as you are in the office for at least 40hours each week. Ergen doesn't care about his employees and prefers to think of them as "children who need a curfew". Don't be naughty or daddy ergen will punish you!

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.
