Stuck in the past

Pros

Dish/EchoStar will give you opportunities to stretch past your assigned role.

Cons

DISH is stuck in the past, promotes a terrible internal culture, and is lead by disengaged people collecting pay checks. There is no employee loyalty, and the amount of talent that left during my 2 year tenure was shocking. Your jaw will drop when employees who have stuck It out there tell you stories about the founder. From a business perspective, you just need to do 5-10 minutes of google research to understand that the company is not doing well, and hasn’t in years.

Sales. You are a salesman who installs tv on the side. Managers have egos.
