Pros

Some of the people I worked with were wonderful and carIng. Some people really looked out for each other. Job really presented many challenges and opportunity to take on huge tasks.

Cons

This company is documented as one of the worst corporate filters that exist at a Fortune rated company. The problem starts directly at the top with the owner of this company. He has been catagorized as a leader who cares nothing about his workers and it shows. A badge deleting system that clock you in and out. If you are late by one minute you will be written up. If tardiness is a consistent problem you may be fired and many employees have been. The 4 and 5 star reviews have to be HR ploys as the negatives defintly outweigh the positives by the majority of current and ex employees. Sad but true.

Pros

The pay TV industry is a fun and fast changing place and DISH is determined to win. The amount of change happening is huge so if you need alot of structure and predictable work, this place may not be right for you. I and a ton of my coworkers are learning a lot, enjoy the team and am taken care of pretty well. Think long term, be willing to work hard and bring your best game and you can have the career you want and have some fun along the way.

Cons

DISH is a young company but working to get better every day while it reinvents itself for the future. If you work here you have to have a thick skin, be self-sufficient, never believe you're performance is as good as it can be and not need alot of feedback and formal training.
