Pros

It's all about who you work for. Dealing with Echostar is a major obstacle and there is a very dissident relationship between the Hughes team and Echostar team. Don't work for someone on the Echostar side if you can avoid it.

Cons

The Echostar ownership has been detrimental to Hughes over the last few years that I have been there. The Company has changed drastically and people leave once they work with the Echostar team.
