It will probably have to establish a good root system in the soil before you see growth above the soil.
I find it is hard to kill a rose bush. I would give it more time. At least another 2 weeks. JMO.
Contact the company you bought it from. Most will either replace or refund unless it's still dormant. I think it should have arrived with some leaf buds at this time of year. Normally dormant bushes are sent either in the spring and fall. It's not unusual for roses to be shipped with cut stems and roots, they are sold that way in the spring in many stores but even those have some sign of life.
It is often the next growing season to have the first blooms after pruning. Make sure the bush was planted correctly including room for roots to grow. Check your online source's guarantee for plants. Walmart has a one year guarantee on most bushes and shrubs. Good luck with this 😇
