Job Title: Installation Technician – Training Provided

Company: Dish Network

Location: Jackson, MI

Pay: $18.75 per hour

AI Pay Analysis: An hourly rate of $18.75 for an “Installation Technician – Training Provided” position in Jackson, MI, appears to be competitive but somewhat below the average for similar roles in the region. As of 2023, wage estimates for installation technicians typically range from $20 to $25 per hour, depending on experience and specific industry demands, with entry-level positions often starting around $15 to $18 per hour. Given that this position offers training, the lower end of the scale could be justified, but the $18.75 rate may limit attractiveness to prospective candidates in a competitive labor market, where benefits and career advancement opportunities can also play significant roles in overall compensation appeal.
