Pros

Echostar gets a bad rap but it really isnt that bad in the software engineering area

Cons

Sometimes the management can lose focus or get wrapped up in the hurry of a large project, but thats probably to be expected anywhere

Pros

The main reason to work for echostar is Job security. After split from dish, the company turned around quite a bit in terms of treating their employees. It needs to change more.

Cons

Pay is below market standards. Management is very bad.
