Clearwire Employer Reviews

Average day consist of 12 hour days 6-7 days a week. No balance between work and life, Clearwire seemed to hire young mid 20s adults to work for the company because they were the only people willing to work long hours to make quotas with no propper traing from mangement.

Great group of people who work hard, think out of the box and have fun.

My job was to ensure each one of my 33 partners were hitting goal requirements. I conducting live monitoring through out the day to ensure partners were abiding by company values and standards. I created an environment with incentives to motivate partners to go above and beyond. I was attend weekly calibration to ensure partners were follow call handling – more...  guidelines and coaching when needed. – less

Working at Clearwire was very rewarding and excelled my management skills even further. As the time progressed I had grown into the General Managerial role, therefore overseeing the entire retail channel of NY NJ and CT market. Our quotas were high but my team and I had great drive and managed to have the best region in the country.

Help the Clearwire retain their customer base, knowing you can help brighten up a customer’s outlook on the product and the company.

The whole WiMax Concept sounded good....even Google, Sprint and Intel bought into it.
My Manager had it in for me from the beginning when I requested a shift change due to religious reasons, very biased treatment.
Every day throughout the day there were emails sent out with policy and procedure changes.

On a typical day at Clearwire, I will start my work day by reading and respond to emails, check for network related outages, run multiple reports, verify my schedule to see what meetings/conference calls are scheduled and ensure that all technicians are assigned tasks.

Daily anomalies usually provide learning opportunities if well documented, should – more...  serve well in the future. The most difficult part of my work day, has to do with knowing when to stop working--given the needs of our network, at a moment's notice, a network failure might occur and as an Ops manager, I always saw to it that I was kept abreast of any such concern.

Naturally, a successful day translate into an enjoyable day. Knowing that I am able to make a difference in the area of helping others and maintaining our network objectives are tantamount to an enjoyable work environment... – less

Working for Clearwire for the past year, i have only recieved one raise. The company is structured thin, so there is no room for advancement only to transfer to different regions. Compensation is bare minimum. the stress does not equate to the pay. Good Starter sales job, if u are new to the industry, for it will surely toughen u up.

I really enjoyed the company and the people I worked with. They take care of their employees, even when times are tough.

They have jobs besides tech support and I would only recommend the tech position only if you are vast in knowledge retaining to Hardware / Software / Os / DSL / Cable / Wireless.

The sales/marketing experience that I acquired while working for Clear is absolutely amazing. It was a great learning experience and their training procedures are top notch. I was lucky enough to be able to gain experience in many different aspects of sales. Because the company was so young I was able to gain experience in everything from cold calling – more...  to B2B sales. I achieved Senior Sales Representative status within my first 7 months working for the company and eventually was asked to help train and allow all new employees to shadow my work during their first week. Amazing company to work for but the technology just wasn't as advanced as the company marketed it to be – less

When I began work for Clearwire in 2010, I found it to be a great job; flexible work, decent hours, and hourly/commission pay held up fine. But as time passed the company as a whole may have not made the best choices by borrowing money from fellow companies and not establishing themselves well enough from the start.

Because of these factors I didn't – more...  receive enough sales and my hours were getting cut. Then eventually I have an unexpected call telling me I'm laid off six months later. Soon after I was informed the company had began to implode on itself and return to online sales only in most parts. It wasn't the best move to be placed into Best Buy locations, which gave the impression of the sales staff as solicitors/peddlers... – less

This company is not stable and has laid off or out source almost the entire company

The product/service offered by clearwire does not work, and they know it. TOS changes happen weekly to account for the lack of service. Even when all troubleshooting steps fail to provide service, they will still boldly charge everyone termination fees as well as $200 for not returning the modem regardless of if it's returned. The fact that they are – more...  still in business is a shock. – less
