Pluspunten

Directors and above often don’t know what they’re doing, so it’s easy to look brilliant. Another upside is constant churn. People get fired, roles open up, and scope shifts. That same churn is also the downside. If you don’t like your responsibilities changing every few months, this environment will wear you down. You can be hired for one role and end up doing something entirely different. Don’t think you’re immune. You aren’t. They’ll let you go to save a quick buck and justify it with policy, being ten minutes late, missing a chat, not responding fast enough. I'm not joking people do get fired for being 10 minutes late in 2025.

Minpunten

Where to start. Dish/Boost likes to think it has a culture. It doesn’t. There are VPs who show up drunk at work for years. There is constant drama, largely because the entire hiring framework, CPAW, is built on Confidence, Pride, Adventure, and Winning. On the surface, those values sound harmless, even aspirational. HR insists they “take culture seriously.” In practice, those traits map almost perfectly to the Dunning–Kruger effect. The Dunning–Kruger effect is the documented tendency for people with limited knowledge of a subject to be highly confident, and for those with deep knowledge to be more timid. Dish doesn't like timid people though....Have to not know what you're doing and be confident about it! The result is predictable. The organization fills up with people who are highly confident and deeply inexperienced and uninformed. I remember one meeting vividly. All the VPs were in a room for a major cross-functional project, trying to decide which departments were responsible for what. They literally took turns trying to define what accountability meant. They didn’t know! None of them! That moment explains everything. Decisions are made at the executive level, and no one is accountable for the consequences.

Work from home is the only pro I can think of

Minpunten

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.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective with us. 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. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at peopleoperations@dish.com so we can better understand your specific situation. Thank you again for your candor in this situation.
