Pros

The position paid well but you earned every penny so pound for pound I don't feel it was worth it

Cons

Satelite is a dying industry and they're just trying to get every last penny from an obsolete infrastructure

Pros

Good pay, lots of talented coworkers

Cons

Your experience at DISH will only be as good as your supervisor. Unfortunately, people who kiss up are highly favored. You aren't likely to be promoted with accomplishments or demonstrating leadership skills. And you'll learn quickly that they'll always hire a man over a qualified woman.
