Pros

The amount of information giving to the employees about the business is second to none. We as employees always knows what is happening with the industry

Cons

Senior management uses fear and bullying as a motivational tactic. They think they have all the solutions and do not solicit feedback before implementation. Instead, they ask "how come you did not make it work" regardless how bad of an idea it was. Fear - They have an annual mass layoffs with this company - 20 pct out, 20 pct new.

Pros

Techs are great. pay is OK as long as you can advance quickly. tools and equipment is the best in the business.

Cons

Work in all weather for as long as the boss wants to keep you out. 12 hours a day are average 14-16 are possible. A lot of driving or time in your van, you are paid for this time at your normal rate however time not working counts against your Points Per Hour that affects your bonus pay and promotion ability. it will be your fault if a customer calls in to dish within 12 days of your visit for a service call ( TC 12) REGARDLESS of the reason IE Dish equipment falls . This also will affect bonus and promotion. You truly have no control of you own destiny, it is based on luck not skill. if you complain another lifeless drone will be eager to take your place and your name will not be spoken again. I have seen many great Techs leave or be forced to leave over these issues. Why dish can not see the value of their employees is hard to understand. This is a great job if only management cared at ALL about the front line.
