      Suitable as a training experience only

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Free TV (some channels) -Opportunities to work with new technology -Good chance to build your resume as you'll literally do 3-5 jobs you weren't hired (or paid) for

      Cons

      -No work from home policy -Very low pay -Poor benefits -PTO capped at 15 days (after several years of employment!) -Broken equipment and furniture, generally poor office conditions -Regressive senior management who lead by "gut" over data

      Not worth the headache

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people working here on the teams are great.

      Cons

      Upper management has a LONG way to go. They don't trust their employees, they often overwork people with no compensation, and expect you to bleed Dish values when in turn they don't practice the same ideals. Charlie Ergan (the chairman) insists that the best benefit he can give his employees is the benefit of opportunity. If I wasn't clear, this place doesn't not respect your personal/family needs.

      Decent company for people with little experience

      Software developer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are opportunities for transitioning into positions where an employee has limited experience if he/she is willing to take on the extra work of learning the job.

      Cons

      Pay is typically lower than similar positions at other companies and health insurance isn't very good. The owner of the company also doesn't seem to care about employees. New hires generally get hired on at hire pay than existing employees. Work life is generally considered more important than family life.
