Pros

There are no pros for working at Dish.

Cons

Long hours, terrible management who will tell you if you don't like it, go work at Jack In The Box. Safety is not a huge priority. Micromanaging, the worst I have ever seen.

Pros

Great to network with professionals. You’ll also gain experience here, but the job market is tough so it can be hard to leave and line something up.

Cons

- Overly complicated hiring steps/process that also change like the wind - Constantly changing directions and priorities - Micromanagement - Charlie still runs the show - 100 different metrics you’re measured on, with new ones added and old metric expectations increasing with added workload - understaffed, downsizing, and no intention of backfilling recruiters - teams you hire for are downsizing too - culture of burnout and overworking - VERY concrete in-office expectation of 42.5 hours (accounting for lunches that you aren’t working) - can’t step outside during the workday as you’ll have to badge out of the building and would affect the hour requirement above^ - raises and increases nonexistent and no intention on adjusting to market rates across the whole company. (C-suite keeps saying it’s coming and pushing it further back) - overall poor work culture. Many I’ve spoken to are even willing to take a pay cut to leave.
