DISH reviews

the expectations for performance incentive are way over the top (almost impossible to achieve). You'll will be exposed to all kinds of outdoor weather conditions working in the field.

The "core expectations" are a relic from another century. Granted, the corporate recruiters are very upfront about this, so no one can say they weren't warned when applying there, but the inflexibility they introduce into work/life becomes unacceptable after a while. Working from home for any reason, even weather-related, is not allowed. (VPN access is still provided, so that teams can handle after-hours support.) The pay and benefits are not up to market standards. The company apparently has no desire to retain top talent. The most useful benefit was the HSA; Dish will contribute to employee HSA accounts if they take a simple health survey and make a tobacco-free pledge. IT is also badly balkanized; each group jealously guards its turf, and getting a request submitted and completed virtually requires a court order. It shouldn't take three weeks for a software developer to get a laptop set up with the proper software, access to development and test servers, intranet, email, etc....but it did.
