We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective on our application timeline. Ensuring a smooth and efficient initial process for candidates is something we continually focus on. On the other hand, we are sorry to hear that you felt your time was wasted due to specific role requirements. Depending on the operational needs of certain business segments and the customer bases they support, language fluency can sometimes be a core qualification for specific openings.

Pros

Get a company van, clock in at your house clock out at your house

Cons

Start your day at 7 and work until there's no more work, company doesnt care if a customer scheduled an appointment between noon and 5 and if you show up after 5 you get cussed by the customer and dish doesnt care. Got off at 11 at night then wake up the next day and be told there no work. The company focuses on technicians making sells without any true incentive, rather a technician make a sell then do what they show up to do. Inventory is always wrong, management only holds technicians responsible, not warehouse not themself, even when you follow chain of command, nothing happens. Absolutely no work life balance what so ever, management tries to get you to work 7 days a week.

Having a company vehicle and the convenience of starting and ending your workday directly from home are aspects of the role we are glad you valued. However, it is disheartening to read about the extensive hours, scheduling challenges, and the friction you experienced with customer interactions. We strive to provide reasonable scheduling window alignment and support our field teams out in the community. Your concerns regarding inventory tracking inconsistencies, management accountability, and an imbalance in work-life expectations are taken very seriously, as we want our technicians to feel supported by both warehouse staff and leadership. Additionally, clarity around workload availability and the structure of our incentive programs are critical components of the technician experience we want to ensure are fair. We would love to have an opportunity to better understand your situation, and we encourage you to reach out to peopleoperations@dish.com to further discuss your experiences.
