Pros

There were many positive aspects of my work experience with Echostar. The largest being job security. As long as I completed my tasks and responsibilities, my position was guaranteed. The company never had any lay offs of employees.

Cons

There were also challenges during my Echostar experience. One of the greatest challenges being advancement and compensation. However, there was never a dead end, I just had to keep pushing while still performing above and beyond the expectation of leadership.

Pros

there is unlimited overtime normally, which is not normal now days. money could be good if you take advantage of that.

Cons

on the other hand much of the time OT can be manditory, and normally they decide when, with no way to change it to work around your life
