Pros
The people I met during my tenure were invaluable.
Kontras
Over worked - with no aprreciation from the company. 65-70 per week. Weekend work was mandatory in most cases. The company does not value hard working, and loyal workers. The company does not value family time. Salary was a not suitable for other comparable positions in other fortune 500 companies. There is no intergrity or trust within the company. The direction of the company changes with every "initiative". The company is so inefficient! As a manager for years Dish nickel and dimed their employees when paying expense reports. It takes 3-4 levels of approvers before you can even get paid on an expense report (heaven forbid you tipped $.01 too much. Travel Accounting will be sure to dock you for it). You sometimes waited for weeks to a month just to get your own money back! I felt like I was constantly loaning $ to Dish. In this day and age other than fast food who can afford a $10 breakfast, $10 lunch and $20 dinner including the 17% tip (yes that's all the tip Dish will reimburse) - really how embarrassing. Most employees eat the cost. Rooming with complete strangers was always a treat. I once had to room with 3 people in a room! Try to find a room in company policy for $89 per night in New York or LA! If a director or VP are on vacation or heaven's forbid NEW and have no clue how to approve a flight - look out. You only have 12 hours before the flight is rejected and the employee submitting the flight must resubmit all over again. I once had an employee resubmit 5 times because the VP had no clue how to click the "Approve" button in his email. Good use of company time. There are too many other cons to list!
