Pros

Pay starts high That’s about it

Cons

No benefits The CEO Erik Carlson personally emailed me on my day off when there was a blizzard warning and a foot of snow why I wasn’t in the office.... I’m in an entry level position. There has been high turnover here the last 9 months because management is very gossipy, doesn’t know how my job function works, and refuses to promote unless they like you. DO NOT WORK HERE!!!

Pros

You learn a lot... quick. You're going to be thrown into the fire within your first 2 weeks, pulled out to attend Base Camp, then thrown right back in again. The one and only pro: you'll learn a lot... quickly. So you can go to another company and prosper there.

Cons

Literally everything. Management has no clue what they're doing- they're loyal to a work ethic from the dark ages. There is no appreciation for our employees and instead of providing incentives, DISH places rules that only incentivizing a quick exit. Pay is wretched and talent management is insanely sad... I would know, I was in HR. We need to control performance and retention, that means MOTIVATE people, not impose more and more rules.
